Time-lapse clouds

This thrilling time-lapse footage of the night sky is enough to leave anyone starry-eyed.

Capturing the mighty beauty of Mother Nature, the footage shows clouds racing across the sky before lightning in a powerful thunderstorm illuminates it spectacularly.

Not only does the awe-inspiring footage capture the Milky Way during a thunderstorm, but what makes this clip even more special is that it was shot in just six hours in the Namib Desert in Africa, which receives less than 100 millimeters of rain a year. (Caters News)
