This page describes a video Till the End of the World, by Hang Li, China
Video caption:
First place in the 2021 IAU OAE Astrophotography Contest, category Aurorae (time-lapses).
Aurorae are often called "Northern Lights" in Europe or North America but here we see that they also exist at the extreme south of our planet. Taken at Zhongshan Station, Antarctica, this time-lapse (speeded up) video shows how some bands of Aurora can remain stable over longer times while other features appear to "dance". See how many different patterns of swirls and waves you can spot in the video.

Video caption: ২০২১ আইএইউ ওএই অ্যাস্ট্রোফটোগ্রাফি প্রতিযোগিতায় প্রথম স্থান, ক্যাটাগরি অরোরা (টাইম-ল্যাপস)।
অরোরাকে প্রায়শই ইউরোপ বা উত্তর আমেরিকাতে "উত্তর আলো" বলা হয় কিন্তু এখানে আমরা দেখতে পাই যে তারা আমাদের গ্রহের চরম দক্ষিণেও বিদ্যমান। অ্যান্টার্কটিকার ঝোংশান স্টেশনে তোলা, এই টাইম-ল্যাপস (স্পিড আপ) ভিডিওটি দেখায় যে কীভাবে অরোরার কিছু ব্যান্ড দীর্ঘ সময়ের জন্য স্থিতিশীল থাকতে পারে যখন অন্যান্য বৈশিষ্ট্যগুলি "নৃত্য" দেখায়। আপনি ভিডিওতে ঘূর্ণায়মান এবং তরঙ্গের কতগুলি ভিন্ন প্যাটার্ন দেখতে পারেন তা দেখুন৷

Video caption: Primo posto al concorso di astrofotografia IAU OAE 2021, categoria Aurore (time-lapse).
Le aurore sono spesso chiamate "Luci del Nord" in Europa o in Nord America, ma qui vediamo che esistono anche all'estremo sud del nostro pianeta. Ripreso presso la stazione di Zhongshan, in Antartide, questo video time-lapse (accelerato) mostra come alcune bande di aurora possano rimanere stabili per lunghi periodi, mentre altre sembrano "danzare". Scoprite quanti schemi diversi di vortici e onde riuscite a individuare nel video.
