Ultimate Relaxation Animation - Starry Night w/ crickets.

Relax for a few minutes staring at the night sky while listening to the sound of crickets.

Orion constellation

Each image was focused on the same spot in the sky over a period of a year. All the stars are pretty much moving relative to other stars in our vicinity & they only appear to move because as the Earth orbits the Sun it changes positions. It is 93 million miles to the Sun. So, in 6 months the Earth moves to a position approx. 187 million miles to the other side of the Sun. This is the reason why nearby stars look like they are moving.

I could watch for hours. Thank you. Is the brightest spot, center left, the sun?

@RunAMuckGirl2 The star is called Rigel in the constellation Orion.

Thank you for your help. So the perspective for the view is from earth, but out side the solar system?

@RunAMuckGirl2 Yes. Each image was focused on the same spot in the sky over a period of a year. All the stars are pretty much moving relative to other stars in our vicinity & they only appear to move because the position of the Earth changes as it orbits the Sun. It is 93 million miles to the Sun. So, in 6 months the Earth moves to a position approx. 186 million miles away to the other side of the Sun. This is the reason why the nearby stars look like they are moving.

@RunAMuckGirl2 FROM Earth but OUTSIDE the Solar System? What do you mean? The Earth is in the Solar System.

Oh bless your heart for taking the time to explain that to me! That helped a lot. Thank you.
