2:32 am
inspired them to reflect on the origins of our world and our very existence and existence. band push oil is one of the five astrophotography as portrayed in the movie. one of my fascination with stars began when i was a kid i think i read one of those children science books my favorite edition was the one titled the first star it had a bright nebula on its cover which caught my attention so i just had to read it and since then i've been mad about the cosmos. first in it mr. banta bushell it specializes in time lapse photography and scours the globe in search of the perfect picture. you've got to be in the right place at the right time to spot certain constellations to capture special kind of moonlight maybe even to see a comet or the northern lights which are extremely rare so that's

2:35 am
we're seeing what it looked like in four hundred saying it was one of those other starry skies like a real time machine allowing us to look into the past. in a for gungho challenge. here in cologne all band pushes camera captures is a blank lit up sky rather than stars. urban light pollution makes it practically impossible to spot anything up above. i was. looking up into the starry night also means thinking about our genesis about the won't sound and the vastness of space and light pollution is everywhere in the western civilized world and blocks out those stocks best we can to believe that. we'll a hey visit if our planet is all there is. and ignore those myriad alternative worlds out there and also get it for when. luckily
2:36 am
we have astro photographers like band push light to remind us of those worlds and the mystical northern lights encourage us to keep gazing skywards. well like the stars in the sky another major fascination is how the vikings lived over one thousand years ago and one of the best places to get an accurate impression is the head of those settlement and they've done their vax fortress in northern germany between the eighth and the eleventh centuries these guys were at the center of the trade networks between northern and western europe all today seven viking houses and a landing bridge invite visitors to experience what life was like back then. viking's life was not for the fainthearted the men hunted for food with bows and arrows. hand-made clothes and cloth kept them

seven facts two roof wooden houses have been faithfully reconstructed. the settlement was built at the end of the show i an inlet on the baltic sea. it was a strategic location for trading precious metals weapons and pelt today it's a treasure trove of jests. behind me the eyes here of a viking age settlement in the ninth tenth and eleventh centuries the first glance it doesn't look like much because it's just a green meadow but it's usually in archaeology the real treasures lie underground and here behind us there isn't a square centimeter that doesn't contain archeological finds. we always say hey that was archaeologically contaminated. in the nearby viking museum visitors can inspect many of the original artifacts. it's one of chalets because shine is the most popular museum. over one hundred thousand people come and usually in search of
