awesome...

The moon could be seen to do this quite recently here from Alaska as far South even as I near Anchorage.

Notice how the sun rotates around the sky and not over it.

Obviously not all from June.. then that is nigh unto Winter at the S. Pole... and it should be dark full time.

So was that the moon or the sun appearing at the same time as the stars and aurora? It seems like the camera would have to have amazing dynamic range to capture the sun with the stars, and the atmosphere would have to be amazingly clear (which is possible at the South pole).

During the months without light, the moon must still show up in Antarctica, right? Never really thought about that.

And seeing the sky and stars rotate completely horizontally, that's trippy.

And great music.

if you like this music check out Isis, particularly their albums Oceanic and Panopticon, they're the cream of the crop of this genre (avant-garde/post-hardcore).

My favorite video on VideoSift to date. Excellent pick. I plan on promoting it again as soon as I earn that privilege. 31 votes is simply not enough.

Simply beautiful. It reminds me of the time I spent up in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska.

It starts to really creep you out when you don't see the dark of night after a while.

As a first time commenter (long time Sift viewer) I have to admire kronosposeidon's commitment to promoting this video over the years. Thank you for doing so, as I was just able to view an absolute beautiful video.

It really does allow one to place themselves at that location, headphones on, enjoying one of our little planets finest wonders.

My sister is spending the next 5 months at the South Pole during the summer months (down there) at a research station. Cool to see some of what she will see!
