I used my telescope and NASA footage to make a 3D video of the Artemis II launch!

Using my telescope from the ITL Causeway with a car pass I was able to track and film the launch of Artemis II, and by combining my footage with NASA's footage from the UCS-15 tracker, I was able to make this 3D video of the launch of Artemis II! I also continued tracking the spacecraft with multiple telescopes throughout the free return trajectory, gathering astrometry and parallax data to independently determine the trajectory and display it in 3D. Then by using the motion of Integrity between photos taken by the crew, I was able to make 3D stereo images of the Earth and Moon!

Artemis II in 3D

Using parallax between my telescope and others, I was able to create a 3D video of the launch and flight of Artemis II. Using photos from the mission we can also see Earth and the moon in 3D! I recommend viewing this video in VR if possible, but YouTube also supports anaglyph glasses with the 3D viewing option.
