A star-gazer has come a little bit closer to the final frontier - after spending 18 months photographing the night sky. With just an ordinary digital camera, Alex Cherney from Melbourne, Australia, turned thousands of snaps into an incredible time-lapse video of the cosmos.
Using long exposures to allow more light in, these breath-taking pictures from the southern tip of Australia demonstrate how he captured the dramatic way the sky changes at night.

The first time I ever really took a good look at the Milky Way was on a moonless, cloudless night on the Pacific Ocean. Through a pair of Navy 1 binoculars. Totally awesome and it can make you feel very small.
Another good site for time-lapse Milky Way photography is Randy Halverson's site - http://dakotalapse.com/ - he does some impressive stuff.
