Earth from space - 24 hour time-lapse

[usergunmetal1]

i put the volume too much i think because i almost shit my pants with that music..........fuckk!!!!

[Tookode1]

Sounds like a rapist made his first hit single lol

[JRBugge]

I like the sound of earth!

[Petymeg8105]

The moon looks like too small. :O

[shellibuhr]

I have Dish and get this channel. Sometimes I actually turn this channel on for the 80's music. Altho recently they got announcers and um..no.

anyway, it is cool to see it in full view. From my t.v it looks like a still and I could never get why some of the images appeared the way they do. Cool,

[BloodRain900]

i DISLIKED BECAUSE OF THR GAY MUSIC AT THE BGINNG!!!!

[hardstyle905]

@BloodRain900 Me too.

[animebassguy]

this is when that handy mute button comes in need

[HairGlitter]

Good tune!

[MadHighway]

What magnitude does Earth appear from the Moon?

I'm guessing -22. The full Moon shines at -12.6, which on a clear night is actually a little bright to look at comfortably.

[PoorBoy706]

There's no "dark side" of the moon. There's a "back side" from our perspective. If you mean which side is currently in the shade as opposed to in direct sunlight, then I guess you could say there's a dark side of the Earth.

[JerrytheLintElf]

Funkiest video on youtube.

[JaguarPawww]

Is there a dark side of the moon, i mean is one side pertinently dark, the same side ?!

[cadilimo]

@JaguarPawww There is a dark side, and yes it is continually the same side. As the moon circles the earth, it rotates like a wheel on a car instead of horizontally like the earth. We end up seeing the same side, but rotated in different positions.

[JaguarPawww]

@cadilimo Awryt thanks appreciate it

[Austimatic]

@cadilimo That is incorrect. The Moons axis is not 180 degrees. It spins on a 1.5 degree axis. The moon is tidal locked to the Earth meaning that you always see one face, which is common amongst moons of any celestial body. What side of the moon do you think is getting sun during a lunar eclipse ;-)

[MadHighway]

@cadilimo

Yes, the moon does keep the same hemisphere facing earth--the near side--but this means the far side is in full sunlight at New Moon. Conversely, the hemisphere we see is in full illumination 14 days later at Full Moon.

To put it simply the moon's is fully illuminated by sunlight as it makes its 29.5-day orbit aroundf the earth.

[Olikiscrazy]

@cadilimo No, that's the FAR side of the moon. The entire moon gets lit by the sun over the course of its orbit. That's why we have lunar phases. For example, when we have a new moon, the far side of the moon is lit up. When we have a full moon, the far side is dark, the near side is lit up. Common misconception. There is no constantly dark side. Just a near and a far side because it is tidally locked to the Earth.

[khedoros]

@cadilimo You're incorrect. The same side of the moon always faces Earth, but the part in shadow changes as the moon orbits Earth. That's where the phases of the moon come from.

[squik101]

@cadilimo Just because we only see one side of the moon, it does not mean that the sun does not shine on the other side. The moon gets the same amount of sun that we do, on all sides. There is no "dark side of the moon."

[hardstyle905]

@JaguarPawww There is no "dark side of the moon" that's permanently dark. You're watching too many horror movies. There is however, a far side, which can never be seen from the Earth.

[jcjlf]

@JaguarPawww  No, not as you say. The side that is invisible from the earth is always the same side but is NOT permanently the dark side, because the moon rotates in one month around its axis. So cadilimo is not entirely right. With New Moon is more or less between us and the Sun. The visible side of the moon, faced towards us, has then its night and is in the dark. Thus we cannot see the new moon. Day and night for a 'mooney' last about fourteen 'earth-days'.

[samluvzcc]

@JaguarPawww The moon has a synchronous orbit with earth meaning that it rotates at the same rate as us and on a tilt. So the reason we don't see the "dark side" or the side that never shows due to the synchronous orbit. No matter what, the moon is always half way lit or "Full Moon", we just see different light portions hitting the moon due to its position in the sky. :)

[sebastiansz]

@JaguarPawww not a dark side, professionally it's called the Far Side. It's not dark

[zeewaker]

@JaguarPawww To answer your question correctly, because cadilimo has no clue what he's talking about; the "dark side" is what we refer to the side that we never see. Its not permanently dark. Beacuse the moon orbits the earth at approximately the same rate as the earth's rotation, we never see the other side. When there is a "New Moon" (when you don't see the moon in the sky) the "dark side" is lighted by the Sun, but we just can't see it from Earth.

[Turtlepowery]

@JaguarPawww It isn't actually dark, the sun lights it.

[Olikiscrazy]

@JaguarPawww There is no permanent light or dark side. Just a near and a far side.

[soURfunnyYOUthink]

are those red stars in the back??? pretty

[theslinx]

how come the clouds don't move lol?

[Destroyer4700]

@theslinx The video is not sped up fast enough to see cloud movement.

Watch this one /watch?v=hDvaU-GyIYE

[denelson83]

@theslinx The clouds are certainly moving. Just jog the video back and forth rapidly and you'll see them moving.

[JaSheen89]

The clouds aren't moving at all.

[Dancing88Mike]

@JaSheen89 run your scroller along from 1:25 to 3:05 and they're moving. You can see

[boosted28]

This music is making me very mad

[920gamez]

Its Fake i can't see my house O_o

[weepingod]

Why does the Moon look so small compared to the Earth?

[cadilimo]

@weepingod The satellite is about 20k miles from earth, and the moon is actually passing around the backside of Earth from this view. So, it's like 20k + 300k... Plus there is no atmosphere which has a slight magnification effect when viewing the moon from certain angles on earth.

[shellibuhr]

@weepingod ummm cuz it's smaller?

[seansalvador1]

@weepingod

Because 1. It is smaller and 2. it is further away!

See this video for reference -

/watch?v=8vbd3E6tK2U

Father Ted is fantastic

;)

[MadNotAngry]

The stupid choice of music detracts from the stunning imagery. What a waste. 

[herbal1971]

The 70s music is hilarious.

[cadilimo]

Some go around and others (geosynchronous) hover over the same spot, spinning at the same rate as the earth...

[Bounkass]

Sick. I thought satellites where in orbit around the earth and not static?

[celeste821]

why does it look like you can see through the earth and see stars in the dark circle?

[cadilimo]

@celeste821 Those 'stars' are actually specks on the lens. The solar radiation degrades the glass on the satellite, causing the specks to appear to be stars when the view is darkened as the sun rotates.

[celeste821]

@cadilimo oh!, ok thanks, that cool

[RoboticPurple]

its spinning so slow....?

[Emmonach]

When the sun is at a right angle to the camera a hexagon appears in the earth. It looks just like the one on saturns pole. What the fuck is that from? Strange Shit

[3DPlanets]

It's channel 287 now. Why do they keep moving it around?

[warriorcats3]

seeing the moon just passing by blew my mind, actually seeing how the moon orbits is pretty cool, and yes i know its time lapsed but still

[Astrobrant2]

@warriorcats3 The movement of the moon that you see is because of the rotation of the earth and the satellite that took these pictures being in geo-synchronous orbit. IOW, it's moving for the same reason that the sun is. Its orbital movement around the earth is actually in the opposite direction.

[jieuxarmeni]

is it Okay I use this for a video project of mine?

[cadilimo]

@jieuxarmeni Totally, but then again it's not my song or my camera work! :) Post the video as a 'video reply' when your done, I would love to see it.

[jieuxarmeni]

@cadilimo Indeed... I'll let ya know... I just want the imagery for an intro... should be done in the next few weeks... I hope! heh, thanks. ;)

[sudoLinux666]

Do they still have this feature? I'll buy Dish JUST for this.

[cadilimo]

@sudoLinux666 Yes they do.

[sudoLinux666]

@cadilimo Thanks, I'll look at it today. :D

[mscynergie]

I like this. Thanks for sharing :)

[dedfsh42]

Was this music playing on the dish network channel?

[cadilimo]

@dedfsh42 no, I added it.

[llitoz]

@dedfsh42 major fail. -_-.

[dedfsh42]

@llitoz how awesome would it be if that music was playing though

[dinoloverist]

It is cool that a satellite can

put a time lapse of earth on

youtube!

[bunnylifespan123]

if you didnt know its on dish and its called dish earth :P

[petetheweet]

Hot damn, this is the funk-daddiest music

[LibertyPrimeV1]

thats me at 2:03

[sereneyoshiko]

does anyone else feel that it looks like a 3d simulation? no debris, no stars? the atmosphere looks flat. they're giving you the type of lens flares you get when you take a photo on earth with your camera, not the type you see taken by any of the other satallites sending us images? anyone else? or its just me.

[Zalamedas]

A hole cloudy day lol.. the clouds don't looks like moving much.. and why the camera's lens or ships window's are never clear?

[brostraid]

This video id NOT fake....you clearly see venus as well as the moon moving through...this is a real channel, comm. satellites are in geostationary orbit further out. Stop being a dick TauVienai!!!

[TauVienai]

Fake video, because if satelite turning arround together with earth, all stars stays in its places, view must be changing from different angles, absolutly fake

[6geology]

@TauVienai no, because it stays in the same place relative to the surface, it also sees perceived movement of stars like we see on earth

[mannyamaya]

daam my birthday's may 15.... thats some random shit

[PandoraKyss]

Song sounds like she's saying "PEED ON YOU!"

[brostraid]

@PandoraKyss Holy shit it does.....Good call HA!

[xoRACHEL96xo]

@2:18 Look mommy! I can see California from my house! :)

[Enriq10ue]

did u guys see on 0:15 THE OBJECT PASSING BUY.....thukmbs up if u did

[sfutcher]

Painful music

[otomwaho]

song is so out of context

[capricious71]

That's way too small to be the moon.

[capricious71]

"Hey, where the hell are you goin' Shaft?"

[baseballpoke]

was it time zone EDT ?

[cadilimo]

@baseballpoke yes, Eastern Daylight Time.

[mrdubcrazy]

nice, if u mute it!

[MillyVanillification]

Typical. A geo-stationary orbit. Showing only the small continent they're living on. Thats maybe why the Americans always say "the world" when they're talking about the USA.

[Langfuhr]

Great vid matches perfectly with the song!!!!

[daveorozo]

I LOVE THIS CHANNEL!

[RFDarter]

fake! Die Wolken bewegen sich in 24 stunden keinen zentimeter loool, also etwas besser hätte man das schon machen können

[livewithrespect]

The song is so funny. What is it?

[cadilimo]

@livewithrespect Peekin by Brass Construction (1975)

[yourmaker74]

makes me feel sick seeing everything weve ever known on my screen star wars style

[serjito87]

wow the moon orbitates really down no? xdd i like (:

how can I watch dish network from spaiN? thanskss

[JustSomeGuyOk]

why dont you see the earth rotate and tilt?

[cadilimo]

@JustSomeGuyOk The colored dots are mostly specks on the lens, particles from the sun. The satellite is programmed to stay in orbit directly over the pacific ocean, so that the America's never loose television signal. It's called a geosynchronous orbit.

[sebastiansz]

@cadilimo nice one. But thought that the cloud masses will be more in motion after so long timelapse...

[sebastiansz]

@cadilimo @cadilimo nice one. But thought that the cloud masses will be more in motion after so long timelapse.

[thelastamigo]

@JustSomeGuyOk

It follows the Earths orbit so it can stay in the line of sight of that particular hemisphere. Its called geostationary orbit.

[JustSomeGuyOk]

@thelastamigo aaah i see... thank you... but what about stars and other planets?

[JustSomeGuyOk]

what are those colored dots? stars?

[dethmag]

@tmack1337 What's cool is if you look on the left side of the screen right when the video begins I think we see the same planet/moon in motion. Several seconds later it appears on the right side. I think its the same one passing behind earth, disappearing then appearing again, seems to be bright and moving at the same speed.

[dethmag]

@tmack1337 looks like a cosmic glare on the camera lens, thats all. There is a few of them at times, they are not venus.

[dethmag]

How can one man have so many bs issues in his life when he is merely a micro speck in the grand theme of things?

[meofpack]

This video is cool !!!!! But the music is not !!! Why this music bro ? Realy !!!!!!

[7xXx666xXx7]

O.o the moon sux... xD!! it's just a little ball

[FiswaT]

awesome

[rurugby]

The eye in the dish channel freaks me out --- cool idea -- bad music choice

[ChiselMouse]

Do they ever play any music other than classical on Dish Earth? I love to watch it when I can, but I liked it better when they played 70's music.

[CheezeFox]

Any particular reason why I seem to be able to see stars in the space normally occupied by the Earth while the sun is off to the side?

[KelsiBunshake2]

0:00-0:05 there is a star moving

[scbyh8r]

Good to know that the earth is really an eyeball only visible on the dark side of the planet

[djmarkcotter]

lol@the moon

[imtxsmoke]

Excellent vid... I've been meaning to record a 24 hour segment on my DVR but have never gotten around to doing it. Thanks for sharing this.

[TENJHOTENGE1]

those tiny dots are stars?

[potheticman]

@TENJHOTENGE1 not all them. i think they use some sorta filter when the camera is on earths shadow.

[JWKessler]

@TENJHOTENGE1 I believe the dots are faults in the camera sensor. They only show up when the earth is mostly in darkness and you can see dots over the earth itself. Unless the planet is clear, there would be no stars there.

The high radiation in space is hard on camera sensors. The HD camcorders they send up to the space station tend to develop stuck pixels as well. You can see them on a lot of HD video from the ISS.

[ABThatsMe91]

This is too cool for words

[knutfheifer]

cakey pie

[cadilimo]

fyi, Dish Network moved this channel to 295.

[cadilimo]

@cadilimo Moving again to channel 287

[angelcordyus001]

the title was temproaily changed to ellen DeGenres loves planet earth

[Iwarekilts]

was this from the dish network satelite because i have a channel that shows this and its called dish earth

[cadilimo]

@Iwarekilts Yup, channel 212

[Iwarekilts]

@cadilimo yeah and one week the title of the program was Ellen Loves planet earth

[flatterearth]

What...is everyone stupid? This is the most ridiculous mock up I've ever seen! Fake single layer of jewel tone twinkling "stars", some eyeball of an orb at night, stupid animation of the light/dark line, clouds move WAY faster over a period of 24 hours. Dish Earth is the biggest farce. What a bunch of trash.

[SCE2OXSaturn5]

Fun, with all the bad in the world, sometimes it's just nice to

Laugh....

[timmypop1]

Awesome so the earth is like the same as the moon like it has phases :) cool!

[tinman842]

funny the moon is a 250000 miles from earth.. and where is the spacestation we should have seen it fly in front of us 15 times it circles the earth every 90 mins.. where all the other satalites to theres hundreds of them.. total edit jobl

[Psychorgasm]

@hunterhalo2

old comment, but, youre wrong

[hunterhalo2]

@Psychorgasm Ok. throw some examples out there brother.

[Psychorgasm]

@hunterhalo2

the ISS is visible from the ground. thats the only example you need

[hunterhalo2]

@Psychorgasm The ISS has a orbital apogee (highest point) of 194 nautical miles. Its in low earth orbit. A Echostar satellite is in a geosynchronous orbit, orbiting at an apogee of 19,322 nautical miles. Thats a difference of 19,128 miles. piss off

[Psychorgasm]

@hunterhalo2

instead of using google to find that info out, why dont you youtube "ISS from the ground", you sound like a real idiot right now

[hunterhalo2]

@Psychorgasm Dude lol, your reading that comment from 7 months ago out of context. It was a response to a guy that said this video was a hoax/edit job. His logic was from the dish satellite you'd be able to see the space station flying around the earth, so I responded with that. haha yea, from the perspective of the dish satellite that's written. This is how wars start, miss communication ha

[MrsBlindStudios]

@hunterhalo2 Your right, but on a slightly unrelated topic, you can see the International Space Station (ISS) from the Earth's surface.

[brownpower2]

how far is moon???

[tash3r]

can i watch this on my computer?

[cadilimo]

I don't think so. as far as I know it is only on Dish network.

[BeanoJosh]

@cadilimo Yes. These videos are from Dish Networks EchoStar 11 Sattelite.

[KiranGlitch]

at first i thought it was a solar eclipse!

this satellite is in geostationary orbit and you can see the moon orbiting the earth!

by the way, the clouds don't seem to be moving much

[gangstaz001]

the earth looks like the moon wtf!!!! LOOL

[andeaver1937]

I love this channel! channel 212. Its on right now =)

Funny I have never seen the moon. =/

[ChiselMouse]

Awesome! I love this channel! Great choice of music for this video also! On the channel, do they take the soundtrack from Dish Network's digital music channels or is it specifically programmed for the Earth Channel? I've always wondered.

[misterryanprice]

OK....

The Moon is seen at the end.

That is the sun in the background.

Everything eveyone thinks is correct.

My questions are :

Why do I see stars on the dark side of our planet, that shouldn't be visible, because they are behind our view? Why arent there any lights from all of our cities when you see the darkside of our planet @ night??

Maybe there is some way of explaining this, but I really need to have help understanding these two points

[cadilimo]

The "stars" are actually specs on lens. From being in space, the solar dust and radiation create spots on the clear lens cover. The camera is 20,000km from the earth, so the night lights are simply too dim to been seen. Especially with the flare of the sun's glare. Also, they're too small. 1 pixel on the camera is equal to 4km on earth (or something outrageous like that)

[whiteblackshoes]

That's so awesome. Thanks for sharing it.

[TF2Pyrosux]

i thought the world rotated also....

[atribute2you]

It's called geosynchronous orbit

[Paulthar17]

@atribute2you geostationary

[Paulthar17]

@atribute2you geostationary

[dnave21]

i thank the satelite follows the united states if im correct

[Boy75402]

It does. The spacecraft is orbiting at an altitude and speed that allows it to stay over a fixed point over Earth (Geosynchronous orbit). This causes it to appear like Earth isn't rotating.

[d0n77]

i believe the moon is what venus is on this video due to it moving in the correct direction...so check it out

[d0n77]

thought u guys should know...the moon goes from right to left on here..thats not the moon..check 4 urselves the moon will go from left to right from earth view and right to left from space view so fix ur video bcause its not the moon at the end

[cadilimo]

Your theory is correct if the camera was viewing the Earth from outside the radius of the Moon's orbit. The camera is 22,000mi away and the moon is much farther. You're seeing the moon pass from left to right on the other side of the planet.

[werlecar]

I just love this channel on Dish.... even recorded it so I can watch in slow or fast.... Also the music is soothing, can fall asleep with thoughts of our great Earth on my mind!

[laetarnus]

Something preety wrong with this picture. The Earth dissapears alltogether revealing stars behind it, the clouds do not move a muscle though hours pass, when it darkens there is a bulb of some kind. The sattelite observes only one part of Earth, I thought sattelites orbit around it.

[cadilimo]

There are good answers for all your questions.

The "stars" revealed behind the Earth are specs on the lens. Damage from years of being in space exposed to solar radiation.

To see the clouds move you need ot let the entire video download, then scroll through the video.

The "bulb" is the sun. As the day passes the Sun moves behind the Earth. This causes a glare on the lens.

Satellites can be commanded to orbit the Earth or they can be commanded to stay above a specific spot.

[losme]

What song is this one?

[cadilimo]

Peekin by Brass Construction (1975)

[ugowar]

It's not stars, it's "hot" pixels in the camera. Damaged by cosmic rays due to being in space for many months. Happens to all cameras eventually out there.

[ugowar]

Cool. Is that Venus that flies to the right of the frame at around 0:15?

[cadilimo]

Good eye, I never noticed that. It very well may be.

[songsurfer08]

I think it's pretty when it looks like a purple pool surrounded by red and blue stars... Wow inspirated going to draw that

[pcrequest]

You can see the moon at about 2:50 into the video, crawling at the bottom of the screen. Dish Network rocks!

[OjaiRoy]

What's with the jungle bunny music?

[prstgs]

If you wait for the whole video to buffer a pull the slider accross quit fast you can see all the clouds moving :):)

[cadilimo]

Nice! That is so cool.

[songsurfer08]

It looks like a giant marbel when you do that lol

[cadilimo]

I captured this myself. The dates I have can be seen in the video. Sorry.

[jbarne07]

Do you have a copy of the video that was captured this past week.
