#astrophotography Timeline

5d

Subí a PeerTube mi clase de técnicas instrumentales, telescopios y astrofotografía que di para el curso de Educación Permanente en CURE Rocha - UdelaR. Los curso de educación permanente son no especializados y son aptos para todo público por lo que son de carácter general e introductorios y su finalidad es transmitir conocimiento a la comunidad, generar lazos sociedad civil y crear lazos interdisciplinarios con otros actores, en este caso, con gente vinculada al turismo astronómico, conservación de ecosistemas y gestión ambiental.

A Path North
* Image Credit & Copyright: Mario Konang

Explanation:
What happens if you keep going north? The direction north on the Earth, the place on your horizon below the northern spin pole of the Earth -- around which other stars appear to slowly swirl, will remain the same. This spin-pole-of-the-north will never move from its fixed location on the sky -- night or day -- and its height will always match your latitude. The further north you go, the higher the north spin pole will appear. Eventually, if you can reach the Earth's North Pole, the stars will circle a point directly over your head. Pictured, a four-hour long stack of images shows stars trailing in circles around this north celestial pole. The bright star near the north celestial pole is Polaris, known as the North Star. The bright path was created by the astrophotographer's headlamp as he zigzagged up a hill just over a week ago in Lower Saxony, Germany. The astrophotographer can be seen, at times, in shadow. Actually, the Earth has two spin poles -- and much the same would happen if you started below the Earth's equator and went south.
