A Meteor Shower In Death Valley

at


A timelapse composed of 25-second SLR exposures edited together by Gavin Heffernan and friends. Sez he:

…my brave team and I trekked to the world-famous Eureka Dunes in Death Valley National Park to search for some of the darkest skies on Earth. Despite temps below freezing, we went on December 13th, 2012 – the night of the Geminid Meteor Shower Peak, and a time of great planetary alignment.

Stray planets at 1.15 and 2.15 with bonus UFO at 1.30.

Best in HD with the sound up.
