Time-lapse videos of night sky looking up from my backyard. I create these to document the overnight observation conditions for my Vespera telescopes. The first time-lapse video is a 180° full sky view looking straight up with a timestamp overlay. The second is a 360° Little Planet view and the third a creative 360° Little Planet “Starlapse” view.

For the 180° full sky view, looking up, the top of the image is north. The left side is east, and the right side is west. With the 360° little planet view the top of the image is north, the right side is east, and the left side is west.
