“I believe in ‘just trying your best’ no matter if you win or lose, succeed or fail the truth will always prevail and so Satyameva Jayte is an ancient Sanskrit term meaning just that. If we do good things then good things will happen to us and vice versa. So if we look after our world then it will be a better place for all of us, if we neglect or damage it then the outcome and truth will not be very good especially for our future generations, our actions dictate our future … The time lapse sequences of photographs were taken by the crew onboard the International Space Station (ISS), I downloaded over 20k+ images and …” More.
Keith’s note: While the demonstrably inept staff at CASIS struggle to figure how to post a few Powerpoint files online – or write/post a simple travel report about the recent International Space Station utilization meeting – this videographer – with zero NASA funding – has managed to produce this astonishing video which, in and of itself, effusively exudes vastly more raw inspiration as to the intrinsic value of the ISS than anything CASIS has done to date – or is likely to do anytime soon.
I think NASA has the implementation process for ISS absolutely backward. There is wisdom in the masses – especially given that the space insiders – with all their expertise – have so obviously dropped the ball.
Really a great video. In all fairness there are some nice ones that NASA ISS Program has done recently also, and with astronauts like some of the recent crew members, they’ve done great jobs getting the images. My concern with all of these is that very few people ever see them. Some attention needs to be focused on how to get the information out.
There is a whole collection of awesome NASA timelapse videos in the Vimeo channel here: http://vimeo.com/channels/n…. I could sit there and watch those all day 🙂
Do a search in Youtube for NASA or ISS. There are dozens. Here is a set of 117:

You can subscribe to them so you are alerted whenever a new one is placed on-line.
Some are higher definition, some are not. Some are many years old, some are newer. Even though some are many years old, you often do not know since they may have been loaded recently. They do not seem to be too organized or indexed or always have the appropriate keywords for searches. When they have 100s of thousands of views, then they could be described as reasonably well distributed. Typical run of the mill TV shows usually have upwards of 250,000 views. Popular TV shows and other broadcast are often in the millions and some have even topped a billion.
The music makes me wanna claw my eyes out.
