I pointed a camera up at the sky and recorded it for everyone to see. It is fully automated so hopefully it will keep going. Only thing I do is make the descriptions when I have time.
My purpose was primarily to show off patterns in nature, but recording a 24/7 time lapse also gives rise to much more. My initial idea was to record in realtime straight to a website and later have users choose at what frame rate to play the footage back, i.e. realtime, 2x speed, 4x speed etc. I might pick this up in the future.
I wanted a fully automated solution so this could keep going as long as possible, so a raspberry pi camera records 1 photo every 12 seconds (slightly longer at night to allow for long exposures). Once a day these images are turned into a 1080p, 60fps video which is in turn uploaded to YouTube. At the end of the month the entire months videos get concatenated and uploaded, and that video also gets sped up by 200 times to make a 3 minute video.
