On February 12, 2020, APOD uploaded an image of the North and South stars moving (
https://apod.nasa.gov/apod/ap200212.html). On the ground the equator is separating line. Polaris is a star that is very close to the equator and specifies the north direction in the northern hemisphere and the south direction in the southern hemisphere and it seems to be fixed on sky from the Earth observers' point of view. The Earth orbits a hypothetical axis that runs north and south of the Earth. This rotation of the Earth makes us imagine that all the stars in the sky are orbiting the Earth. This rotation of the Earth makes us imagine that all the stars in the sky rotate around the axis.
In order to find the Polaris (the geographic location) in the night sky, which is locating in the end of the Ursa Minor, it is enough to find the constellations of Ursa Major, Cassiopeia.
This trailer is made up of 234 shots for 30-second (117 minute) in northwestern Iran under the moonlight.
