I've seen this before, years ago; likely posted it previously here.  If so, it's worth a repeat.    8-year time-lapse movie.

It is strange seeing stars actually moving.  But very awesome of course.  Couldn't have imagined seeing a clip like this as a kid.

It will be really cool to see the 50 year time lapse movies of the future.

My goodness, Cindy, where have you been? Hope nothing serious. The forums have become positively uncivil without your presence, my girl!
