I originally found this awesome bit of work put together in GIF format, but decided to break it down frame by frame to allow you to read it at your own pace. Epic is such a cliche phrase to use, but I honestly can’t think of another word to describe this. I Wonder how or if the human race will survive to be able to witness the end of our great planet? You can view the original full size GIF here.

If you haven’t seen the show, it’s a 13 episode series that was first aired in 1980, was once the most viewed television series in US history, and has been viewed by over 500 million people worldwide. Luckily, Hulu and Netflix are both currently playing the entire series and I highly recommend it.

The above picture was a recent NASA Astronomy Picture of the Day (click to enlarge) that shows Comet Lovejoy flying over the Paranal Observatory in Antofagasta, Chile.
We showed you how Lovejoy made its death-defying lap around the Sun, but failed in showing you just how beautiful the comet is. Luckily, the below time lapse video was made that catches not only Lovejoy, but yet another awesome shot of the Milky Way.
Before watching the video, however, I strongly suggest to play it in full screen HD in the darkest room you can find; it really is breathtaking.
Night Time Lapse of Comet Lovejoy (C/2011 W3) rising above the Andes near Santiago de Chile, 23rd December 2011, just before sunrise. Set of 4 sequences taken with different lenses “zooming in” the scene.

If you have ever wondered why there was so much hoopla when scientists predict solar flares then this video will put them in pretty big perspective. When common flares are 30 times the size of Earth, it is no wonder why satellites and anything else in Earth’s orbit isn’t safe!
