Airglow waves. Do you you think our night sky is pitch black ? Have a look at this timelapse video. I captured it at Carnegie Las Campamas observatory. Those red waves are not clouds (!) - this is pretty intense airglow, which takes place in upper atmosphere. It’s very interesting to see how the waves move. While camera pans you will notice on the foreground both 6.5-m Magellan telescopes, as well as nicely setting Milky Way. I hope you’ll enjoy the view ! :) Music: “Airglow” by © Club 220

Anne Carson, 1 = 1 in The New Yorker (via merulae)

At night, densely populated areas become largely unpeopled, and a reclamation seems to take place. The photographer Lynn Saville aims to capture this emptiness. See more of her photographs on newyorker.com.
