SOUTH POLE | NIGHT IN ANTARCTICA
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 лют 2019
- The South Pole is one of the coldest, driest and harshest places on earth. The Aurora Australis can be seen together with the core of the milkyway only here in Antarctica. Temperatures below -70°C/-95°F during the polar night are not uncommon. Together with strong winds and exceptional aridity this is one of the hardest places to shoot timelapse in. Special equipment has been constructed and modified to keep the cameras running.

FAQ: there is ZERO air-traffic over the south pole. The streaks you can see are for the most part satellites on polar orbits.
than why only on 1 footage?
@@sktirkid because I removed them from many other shots, and in the middle of winter they are less visible because of the suns position lower under the horizon...
@@TimestormFilms it's funny they look like planes not so far away
@@sktirkid Im pretty sure that's because some satellites (like the ISS) can be really bright, up to -5 apparent magnitude (that's brighter than venus!). Also, considering this was taken at the south pole, you can probably see a lot of satellites because even though it's night, the sun isn't that low (probably ~18 - 23 degrees below horizon, pretty low comparing that to the equator where the sun can be literally 90 degrees below horizon) and since satellites are pretty far up, they can still see the sun and reflect a lot of light back to the camera.
Il y a tant de choses magnifique à partager . Merci à l'infini pour toutes vos superbes vidéos . Peace .
What a beautiful world we live on.
@@passenger6619 It's so sad to think about, but unfortunately it's just the way of life.
@@passenger6619 who's we ? Speak for yourself thanks
You better remove that "we" word! It's not like all of us have the same opinion :/
@@meiai6487 it's look like you don't come under mankind we means human you stupid and we're destroying this planet
@@WanderingLoner1 ...why are you so sensitive
I’ve made a honest to god promise to show my mum the Northen lights in person before she passes away, it’s been her dream and it’s a memory to cherish forever
That’s so lovely, hope the Aurora Borealis will give many blessings to her
These were the Southern Lights.
@@ozoz4776 There are southern lights and a south pole....nimrod.
Aurora AUSTRALIS, different name but same phenomenon.
@@ozoz4776 there are Southern Lights
Just seeing this through the screen already made me cry, don’t know what will happen if I see this in real life
I feel the same way. This is absolutely incredible I almost feel like if I saw it in person I would faint from the intense beauty.
So glad to see it to the extend that my tears fall down while seeing it. (tears of joy) Wonderful view!
@@saracroughan529 Was there for SSP ops. Youd be midblown w my story. USAF.
I’d pass out 🤣
You'll be like lack of words for emotion.
Watching this for only a few minutes, takes you away to heaven where you see peace.
You don’t see the ugliness around you only beauty. Thank You.
I hope whomever was in the room with you 4 months ago never saw this lol
Kind of makes you just...want to fly away and never come back.
Exactly what i was thinking!
Ooooh yeaah🙌🏾
@@haripranav992 same
😍❤ yes... to float and drift in midair endlessly... while using a cloud as a pillow...
@rohit dubariya thanks
This left me speechless and for some odd reason a bit emotional. I can’t put into words how magical this is. I don’t believe humans understand how lucky they are to live on such a breathtaking planet suited exactly for them. Thank you for sharing this. What a dream to actually be there to experience such beauty.
Cool aurrow
Aurrow
we're suited to the planet not the other way around lol
I cannot believe this video!!
I could not have said this better
Back in the late 80's I spent a year working at McMurdo Station, then another year at Amundsen-Scott Station at the geographical South Pole. We were still living under the big-o Geodesic Dome back then. Wintered over at both McMurdo & the Pole. Watching the Aurora Australis (Southern Lights) dancing in the night sky, all eleven weeks of 24/7 night sky, was truly a sight to behold. Hell, even on the rare occasions the Southern Light sat out the dance.....the dark skies over Antarctica were spectacular.
There's really no way to properly describe the quiet white magnificence of Antarctica, so I won't even try, but after 2 straight years my adventure down on the ice began losing it's luster. Like always, I felt the urge to move on to a new adventure. Boy did I move on.... all the way to the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Bagged a gig working at the U.S. Army Ballistic Missile Test Range on a tropical island. Kwajalein Lagoon in the Marshall Islands. From blinding white ice to blinding white sand beaches where the turquoise sea was 84 degrees & the weather was a constant year round..... High of 88....Low of 76....Partly Cloudy..... Chance of Rain. The night sky took on a whole new look. Looking south, the Southern Cross dominated the view. Looking north, the North Star shone just above the horizon. Kwajalein is one of the few locations on the planet where both can be seen simply by a turn of the head. Stayed in the Marshall's five years.... then off to Sub-Saharan Africa, Nigeria & Cameroon to be exact. Damn, I've had such a wonderful, adventurous life as an expat I almost feel guilty..... almost.
How can i do that? (What job did you do at McMurdo?)
@@gayxor: Learn a trade. Apply to to companies with world wide employment divisions ie: Johnson Control World Services, Raytheon, Lockheed, Harbert International, ..ect. Google companies that employee overseas workers. I always worked in Electrical Power Generating Facilities, Power Plant Electrician, Power Distribution, Power Plant Operator, High Voltage Electrician, Maintenance Electrician...ect.
After you complete even one contract, it becomes easier to choose where on the planet you want to work & live next. Remember, look at the whole package, not just the hourly wage. Medical benefits, Room & Board, vacations, 401K's/retirement if available, company paid transportation, length of contract, tax free or tax deferred? Always shoot for tax free wages, but make sure you pay into Social Security. You'll be glad you did when it comes time to collect. Good luck pal.

Go for PAE they have good benefits and better pay usually also look at Parsons...
I did the same in 98 and 99 as he did they hire for all different types of jobs now then what they did back then.
Also you’re usually deployed from October to March you will need a passport and have to pass a medical and psycho exam.
They don’t move people to the night shift (March to October) until they know how you will react after a day trip...
And btw it’s daytime there from now until March (well except for McMurdo) where they only have a few hours of twilight atm...
Edit: sorry thought this was a new post!
Sorry, the people who gave this video a thumbs down have lost their souls!
They never had souls!!!
They are simply Aliens 😂😂😂
@@Tek4uOfficial rotten ones! 😅😅
Total zombies !
Maybe they realized this wonder and more there are being kept from them by the UN and all the countries through the antarctic treaty! It's them that have no souls!
What a beautiful place the universe is...
Yah , you right man . I wish I could Leave all my shit , and spend my whole life there

Oh. My. Gosh. That is really one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. Sometimes I can’t believe how lucky I am to be alive.

Never forget you indeed are lucky to be alive! Count your blessings!!

Man the colors in Antarctica are way cooler than the Northern Lights
It's actually exactly the same, and the cool thing is it happens at exactly the same time in both poles.
They’re the same
Yes same phenomena yet different names. I had to Google it... the Southern lights are called Aurora Australis while the Northern Lights are called Aurora Borealis.
High Five 👋 (Borats Voice ) !!
@@slooob23so Aurora happen when the sun is on equator right? In the middle of south and north
@@godinezfer1906 i see, a person of culture
When you look at this and take it in, every cell in your body knows that this is what we are. We are this.

Yes
I had the same thought exactly. That’s me !

Auroras are my favorite natural phenomenon. The best display I have ever seen in person was in the vicinity of Fairbanks, Alaska. My wife and I sometimes go aurora hunting in northern Minnesota (on rare cloudless nights). Thank you for producing such a beautiful film. I watched this several times before commenting. Your channel is such an inspiration!
Cristiano Rizzotto 🕊️
I've had the honor of seeing "Borealis" in both Minnesota (seeing them in the summer time is a special treat) and Alaska, in Fairbanks they are sometimes very bright, very colorful and can dance in tight swirling patterns because of unique magnetic field conditions overhead.
I love Auroras as well they are a bit harder to see In mainland Australia but not impossible I even called my cat Lady Aurora after the Southern Lights.
Antarctica is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. I really hope I can visit someday
Never having left the u.s. I envy the people that live on the southern hemisphere for that view. So many stars. Beautiful and humbling seeing the northern stars then BAM southern puts it to shame
Go to northern canada and youll see them. I live in santiago of chile so im closer to the south pole but i cant afford to travel there :(
u could stay in the US and see them in alaska as well
So peaceful The northern lights and the stars mother nature is such a beautiful thing I wish I can see that in person.
This was shot in Antarctica, at the South Pole, therefore they are the Southern Lights or Aurora Australis not the Northern Lights.
Southern lights, no?
@@paparalph3273 there are no airplanes in the south pole !!!!!! so this video is in the north.. fake video
@@MeeZyStudioZ there are no airplanes in the south pole !!!!!! so this video is in the north.. fake video
@@fahadskyline9347. I'd like to add a few things:
First: Was this video taken at the South Pole? Yes --- at 0:08 and 0:25 we can see that they are telling us that they are at the South Pole.
Second: In the segments where they are showing a “time laps” we can see the apparent rotation of the background stars is clockwise. While, the apparent rotation at the North Pole would be counter clockwise.
!!! GLOBE EARTH !!!
And third --- If there are no planes flying at the South Pole, how did my daughter get there? She sure as hell didn’t walk!
Why do stupid people always have to butt in with their two cents.
Wow, so beautiful. I would love to one day visit Antartica. I live in New Zealand so it seems 'close' but it's still just so far away and inaccessable.
The Light. It's dancing making its own beautiful music.
beautiful words
the Australis is much more of a spectacle imo, than the Borealis.... Just so damn difficult to get to see it......This footage is stunning, and MUCH respect to Robert for managing this in those really extreme conditions
The scenery here is absolutely beautiful. Quite a beautiful planet we call home.
Amazing, never seen sky like that before - the movement of the stars, the Milky Way, the colours of the auroras. Privileged to be able to watch.
The stars in the southern hemisphere look like jewels. The Milky Way even looks better, and they have the Magellanic Clouds.
Imagine living in half moon antartica and when the night arrives you see something green and blue dancing light in the sky
I am from india, it's mesmerizing me....,🇮🇳
I double check the video quality, I though I've played this in 1080p60fps, found out it's just only 360p.
Remarkable piece of art. I envy with the people that living in that magical country.
Nobody lives there (I'm not even sure there is any historical record of a birth on that continent). But some spend a few years here...
It’s hard to believe this utterly beautiful spectacle happens on the same planet that we are on ....thank you for sharing with us
Millions of thumbs up for mister Robert Schwarz: CMB-Observatory (Cosmic Microwave Backgroud) operator and technician at the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station.
You did a great job here Robert
thanks :)
@@ICEMANatSouthPole Wow, thank you for this amazing footage! I met a mechanic from down there up here in Seattle and he told me about the birds that steal your lunch! Gua? Fascinating stories.
I just saw this magnificent display of the Auroras. The orchestration of the musics with the lights is spot on. Couldn’t of picked a better instrumentation of classical music while the Aurora’s are dancing in the horizon and above you. I wish I could’ve been there to experience it but I have your beautiful video to watch over and over again. Thank you so much! Keep Chasing!!
As an astrophotographer, I can say this is heaven for us
Wish to see this miracle at least once!!
This is so beautiful and peaceful along with the music.
Stars spinning clockwise!
3:00 That machine is freakin WORKIN IT to the lights, man.
This video deserves a billion
As beautiful as this looks I can’t even imagine how cold the winter night is in Antarctica. 🥶
It can reach temperatures of -70°C/-95°F
I feel peace and i love it the lights are very awesome...
Absolutely spectacular. Was just in Antarctica and fell in love with the landscape....the skyscape here is just out of this world...amazing work!
Hi from Turkey 🇹🇷
I like it . This video is so great 😍❤️
Thank you for video 🙏
Wonderful..
Have observed this in Arctic Circle (Aurora Borealis) and there are no words to describe it. Served on an Icebreaker in US Coast Guard, during the summer we broke ice to bring supply ships to Thule Greenland AF Base, and from there took scientist as far north as we could reach by surface vessel for experiments and research. USCGC Westwind held the record at the time for sailing farthest north by a surface vessel. 29 Aug 79 Penetrated to 83°45'N-375 mi from North Pole. It was like a different planet there, sun 24-7, extremely cold, surrounded by ice, and icebergs. Harsh environment but yet extremely beautiful. Something i will never forget. Still have the awards, medals and patches for sailing that far north.
CONGRATULATIONS , THANKS FOR SHARING YOUR STORY I MUST ADMIT AS I WERE READING ( the way my mind works ) ALONG WITH VISUALIZATION AND FEELINGS ...YOU TOLD A GREAT STORY IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME , I ENJOYED READING IT ( THANK YOU ).
When a small part of the night is so unearthly, it can be imagined how beautiful the whole night is.
Paradise in the Skies at Night 💙💚💜
Find it impossible to believe that anyone witnessing this without knowledge of the science behind it would not believe in some kind of supernatural god force running the show. Even with that knowledge it's hard to believe my eyes. Amazing.
It's witnessing this and the knowledge of the astonishing material laws acting in perfect balance that brought me back to faith. The two can be in harmony and deliver rich reward. Just avoid zealots on both sides, they aren't interested in harmony.
Magnificent guys. The amount of work represented in this film is astronomical (sorry, unintended pun). It is a tribute to the commitment of you both. My spirit is the richer for having watched this tonight. Thank you.
I had a good chuckle when the dish at about 3:00 minutes started moving back and forth as if it were asking "which object overhead do I track" as the objects flew back and forth in the night sky. Great time-lapse!
NebTheWeb👍🏽
Maybe it was over excited by the spectacle above it!
One of the most beautiful things ive ever seen
There are no words that I can think of right now to describe how epic and beautiful this is, thank you for sharing Robert.
Absolutely STUNNING! Thank you for going through the extremes you do, to share this with us all! Amazing!
Great cinematic effects too. Thanks, Timestorm Films for sharing these wonders with nature: night skies, milky way and the Lady herself...
You've been blessed to see these places with your own eyes, thanks for sharing them with the rest of the world!
The miracle of technology brings this to me. God be praised.
Wouldn't is be humans be praised since it was humans who made the technology that this was filmed with and then it was humans who made the technology that you're watching this on. Stop giving god the credit humans deserve
Cosmic Love You must be fun at parties
@Cosmic Love
Did science create the lights as well?
@@jabinvarghese7845 we know how the auroas happen if I have to explain y'all need to go back to the third grade
@@thegreatallanu Dude, you don't have to be a shithead. They have their own beliefs.
Fantastic! Sound and picture are perfect. Good work as usual.
Mesmerised in every possible way. Thank you very much for sharing.
Stunning. Wish I could go there!
As many times as I've seen them and though I can explain them scientifically, I'm still always as amazed as the time I first saw them.
Simply breathtaking.
Among the best Aurora timelapses I’ve ever seen, bravo
Achingly beautiful pairing of visual and sound.
Leaves one breathless....
Breathtaking! A real masterpiece
I got so happy to see a new video. This is absolutely jaw dropping.
Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing this.
So Mesmerizing, it makes me joyful of the beauty of the sky, and all of creation.
Absolutely stunning!
Wow, absolutely gorgeous Robert & Martin. Nature truly is Inspiring! Enjoy!!
Такое великолепие!!! Как же это красиво.. Огромное спасибо за высокое мастерство, за тяжелый труд, без них мы бы не увидели это чудо!
Природа не перестает восхищать!!! Спасибо авторам за возможность видеть эту красоту!!
What an amazing scenery! The aurora and the milkyway are incredibly beautiful and mysterious.
Hope to be there one day before I die and look upon the beautiful sky with the colorful universe.
I feel the same. .. !!
A masterpiece of art! Thank you!
This is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen, to see it in person with your own eyes has to be magical. I would be so emotional.
This is jaw droppingly mesmerizing. There are no words just sheer awesomeness for the vastness and beauty of our Earth and the cosmos. Thank you for posting! I'm curious if anyone who has seen auroras, do they make any sound?
Thats impressive. That freezing cold night sky look so clear!
@@onorebakasama ahh, that's why cold frosty nights are so good to watch the night sky. I got a nice starry timelapse this past winter in frosty conditions and wondered why the stars were so clear.
@@onorebakasama
Correction: Cold air is denser than warm air.
Antarctic air is, more importantly, dry and thermally homogeneous, hence the clear and steady skies.
@@JonasHholt ... Pls tell more abt starry timelapse
Wonderful, wonderful stuff. Thank you for freely sharing this; it enriches my life.
Its 3 A.M and idk why I’m watching this but it’s peaceful ♥️
Watching The Milkiway and The Aurora dancing trough her is amazingly beautiful.
Thanks a lot❤
That's absolutely gorgeous.

I am so happy that people do this type of work because I will never journey there to see for myself just how truly beautiful this is with my own eyes. Thank you for sharing.
Какое чудо, какая красота!!! Спасибо авторам ролика thank you 😃❤️
Thank you for posting videos like this. With so much ugliness going on in the world today, it’s nice to be reminded of the beauty that is present through all of this. The video along with the music you’ve chosen helps me travel away from where I am in this present moment and into the galaxy dancing with the stars between the rows of colors.... thank you for the helping Me with this healthy escape
Remarkable video! Thank you for all the hard work of those who made this possible!
This is such a gift of beauty and the infinite. The music so perfect for the msytery. Thank you, thank you
This no joke brought tears to my eye. Absolutely beautiful
Omg the sky is galexy it's sooo beautiful and wonderful it's like a dream that doesn't exist
Thank you for doing this, it's amazing and beautiful!
Southern Lights
Outstanding!
Thanks
Since I discovered this channel I enjoyed a lot your work. However this time, I truly believe that has overpass your own art.
The sense of isolation, insignificance and rejoice are beyond anything that I had feeling before.
Thanks for this gift,I believe that you has remember us that take risk worth it.To show us the world that we have lost in our big cities ligth's and routine. To inspire whom that want to know the world.
Immensely Thanks!!.

Absolutely breathtaking ! Incredible footage of auroras and milky way. Wow. Wish could experience for real.
I can’t understand why someone would not like this????? It’s magnificent!!!!
Probably flat earthers. They think the South Pole does not exist and that Antarctica is a ring of ice that holds the flat earth waters in from spilling out over their imagined edge.
Extraordinário. É de ficar sem fôlego. Quantas maravilhas sobre a terra... 🌎♡.
I can not count how many times I lost my breath, simply amazing. Thank you.
These videos actually make me emotional. And good job to the person who makes these videos.
