I have seen some 3D videos, but this one uses the format very nicely for the topic. One major issue is that the compression artifacts are really annoying, even at the largest resolution, but that's a direct consequence of trying to display the night sky with all of those stars and randomness. Thanks for doing this video and sharing it!
Sometimes 360 video is annoying because there really isn't 360 degree content, the user just decided to shoot it in 360 degrees. This is one of the best applications of 360 degree video!
I've known of all these constellations and stars for most of my life, but I never get tired of seeing them. I love the mythology behind them that you added, great job.
I just wanted to say I was shocked that a video with so few views was this good. You felt very professional on your presenting and took full advantage of the 360 filming. The only downside is it was so short, it would be great if it were an hour long and did all of the constellations. I genuinely wish there were more people like you in education, kids would learn much faster as this was much easier to understand. Something that requires graphical interaction like this shouldn’t be taught in a textbook!!

I am in AWE, I never knew there were interactive videos on youtube... and what a great video ... with the song from « La Traviata » of Verdi, and the Zeffirelli’s movie that deeply marked my childhood !! This was amazing Thank you !!
This video is great! One of the best about about the stars I have seen so far. Great simple realistic and good to remember demonstration! Congratulations and keep going! Since ever we marvel at the stars and the more we discover the more we marvel. Incredible.
This is the best constellation finding vid I've seen! If I ever get out of the city I'm definitely gonna try and find some of these! Thank you Skunk Bear!
Great, high quality video! I learned a lot about the constellations. I especially loved the arrows that led us around, and how you took advantage of the 360 degree view! I can't wait to study the stars!
There are No enough words to appreciate this video Creative beautiful magical Shall I say its the best 360 video I have ever saw ? I guess! Thanks again Subscribed and shared.
I'm well familiar with the winter sky, thanks to my bygone morning paper route as I jammed my hands under my arms and impatiently watched Orion march across; but I never got my bearings on the summer skies. Tanks for this 360 presentation.
Thanks for the video! I was trying to learn more about the great rift surrounding the galactic Center & it’s interesting that this area is at the scorpius & Centaurus on the Sagittarius constellation at the north while you find andromeda, Aquarius Pisces to the south ! it’s said that the North Pole is always gravitationally pulled towards the galactic Center. Very curious!
Astrologers were the first star gazers and first astronomers. Then it became astrologers/astronomers and one was disrespected in ancient times if they didn't do astrology. Then the astronomers rejected the feminine and the soul (astrology) so they left and became mental (logic, reason) astronomy and star gazing as a navigator's tool for ships. All the way to today's air ships of nasa military and technology. Astrologers remained the same, both astrologer-astronomer, the wholeness of both "mind and eternal soul" and our mythology: "as above, so within". Astronomers still use our Astrologer's mythology as part of their work, they can stray but they can never wander too far from the Great Mother of Astrology.
Job 38: 31 Can you tie the ropes of the Kimah constellation, Or untie the cords of the Kesil constellation? 32 Can you lead out a constellation in its season, Or guide the Ash constellation along with its sons? 33 Do you know the laws governing the heavens, Or can you impose their authority on the earth? 34 Can you raise your voice to the clouds To cause a flood of water to cover you? 35 Can you send out lightning bolts? Will they come and say to you, Here we are!36 Who put wisdom within the clouds Or gave understanding to the sky phenomenon? Apocalypse 14: 6 And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, and he had everlasting good news to declare to those who dwell on the earth, to every nation and tribe and tongue and people. 7 He was saying in a loud voice: “Fear God and give him glory, because the hour of judgment by him has arrived, so worship the One who made the heaven and the earth and the sea and the springs of water.” ("יְהֹוָה,YHWH,Yahveh, Jehova") (Isaiah 42: 8-9, Psalms 83: 19).

@@wxslzy look south in summer for it, early pm
Amazing video thank you! Liked, subbed and shared on the 360 videos page on our site :)
Egypt been mapped out the universe
Wow the first time I've seen a 360 video being done to its full potential. Thank you!!
like a planetarium
Me too
This was an amazing video. I thought that it being 360º would ruin the experience, but it actually enhanced it extremely.
I was lost half time.

I'm blown away by your production value! This is the first 360 video I've watched that wasn't irritating and thrown together lol.
Wow, Skunkbear does the first 360 video that doesn't look like it was shot with a potato and it served a purpose!
I am learning the constellation but I didn't know where to look at in the skies. That's really helpful.
theres aps for that

This is one of the best videos i've seen on youtube. Please do more on the topic of constellations.
This is the best experience I have had on RUclips in a while. This video should have more views
Honestly this is the best, most magical RUclips video I have ever come across, thank you for this. I love npr!
This was truly great guys, hope you keep up the great work!

Wonderful upload - especially the 360 degree format. Well done indeed, thank you.
This is the best-looking, most well-made 360° vid I've ever seen. Proof that good content is driven by good purpose. Bloody brilliant!
The video is very good! You deserve more attention.
PS.
I can't find the link to the printable version of the sky you stated at the end :)
You got here so quick! Here it is: media.npr.org/assets/img/2018/06/25/NPR_Star_Guide.pdf
I remember the summer of 1983 when I did this, a complete orientation to the summer sky and learned all the constellations. It was a wonderful time.
Really perplexing video interaction, but half the time I was lost.
This was simply brilliant! Cheers!
I am in AWE, I never knew there were interactive videos on youtube... and what a great video ... with the song from « La Traviata » of Verdi, and the Zeffirelli’s movie that deeply marked my childhood !! This was amazing Thank you !!
This is an amazing video! Felt like I was watching RUclips like never before
Awesome video and really nicely presented. made me smile like a kid the whole time. Cheers.
This needs to go viral this is awesome!
This video is great! One of the best about about the stars I have seen so far. Great simple realistic and good to remember demonstration!
Congratulations and keep going!
Since ever we marvel at the stars and the more we discover the more we marvel. Incredible.
This is a great video Skunk Bear. Good work. :D
Amazing video. Have never seen 360 video actually making sense before
The app Skymap is very nice to learn to differentiate those constellations. Here in the South Hemisphere the principals constellations are others.
This is the best constellation finding vid I've seen! If I ever get out of the city I'm definitely gonna try and find some of these! Thank you Skunk Bear!
Get at least three hours drive out of the city and look up at the sky. You can thank me later.
I really enjoyed the way the 360º video was used.
This was an amazing experience.
Fascinating stuff. The videos you guys made are always so high in quality and knowledge
Great, high quality video! I learned a lot about the constellations. I especially loved the arrows that led us around, and how you took advantage of the 360 degree view! I can't wait to study the stars!
That was amazing! What an incredible tool for learning with. Thank you so much for making that!
This video is amazing. You deserve so much more views.
Alright, I'm subbing just for the immense care and time that had to have sunk into this video. You've earned my support
Brilliant!! First time on a 360 degree video - Amazing!
Really awesome use of 360 video! Keep this up!
Amazing video! I loved the commentary and the 360° view. Very interesting
First 360 video I enjoyed
PLEASE make videos for the rest of the seasons. My students loved this video and asked if there was one for fall or winter. I'd love it too.
First time I see a 360º video!

The ancient Greek's Ouzo must have been a lot stronger than today's if they could see all those creatures in the stars.
Bravo bravo bravo, this is magnificent
What a amazing constellation I am so excited
How the HELL can someone dislike this video? Oh, that's right. The world is filled with miserable people who will find something wrong no matter what.
