Astrophotographer Bartosz Wojczyński created this fascinating timelapse of the Earth’s rotation but instead of stabilizing the ground, he stabilized the sky. Bartosz adds:
23 hours and 56 minutes, one frame per minute. Looped 60 times. Taken in Tivoli, Namibia. Equipment: Nikon D810 + Irix 15 f/2.4, mounted on a Sky-Watcher Star Adventurer. The mount “cancels out” Earth’s rotation by slowly spinning in the opposite direction. That’s why the stars are stationary and the landscape rotates around the celestial pole.
