Krayon of Egegik@wonderofscience WOW! I would love to know how that was filmed. Drone perhaps? I mean you couldn’t plant the camera on the ground right? Gawd I love science!
Jon@Krayon @wonderofscience the camera is on an equatorial mount. Similar to what’s used to stabilize telescopes so they stay locked on a part of the sky.
