The Lord sure put on a show for us! The astronomer said that he took the video hoping for noctilucent clouds because conditions were ripe for them. That they rolled and put in a galloping display was tremendous boon for him, because they are usually stationery. Then after several hours when the Aurora put on a show too, he said he kept the camera rolling until his memory card was filled up. The actual footage time was about five hours, between 10pm and 3am. The time-lapse compressed it into 2:22.
- Maciej Winiarczyk, 41, captured the images in Caithness, Scotland
- Noctilucent, or ‘night-shining’, clouds are normally too faint to be seen
- Half way through the video the clouds are joined by a spectacular aurora
“A stunning time-lapse video of a rare celestial show has been captured dancing across a night sky. The recording gives a rare glimpse of rolling noctilucent clouds and dancing aurora glimmering across the horizon.The astronomer witnessed the famous Northern Lights and ‘night clouds’ earlier this month, over a single night above Caithness, Scotland. It is unusual to see either phenomena, and incredibly rare to see both simultaneously.”
The video below is from BBC News, which reported: “We wanted to show you this stunning time-lapse video of a rare celestial show that’s been captured by an amateur astronomer in #Scotland. The recording is extraordinary because it shows us rolling ‘night-shining’ clouds – they’re very rare in themselves. But while Maciej Winiayczyk was filming them in the skies above Caithness, the aurora borealis also put on a vivid display.”
