Sky at night

Hey guys - I do appoligise if this question is completly on the wrong website but as a regular user I know you can be pretty helpful... admins, feel free to delete this thread if its too irrelevent.

Basically, I'm looking for a video - say 5/10 mins long - of the sky at night. I would love to get my hands on a video showing the apparent stars moving across the sky as the Earth rotates but I'm yet to come across such a clip.

Many thanks in advance, if I could get hold of this I can guarente it will make people happy!

Cheers again

Ian

Why not get one of the PC astronomy programmes? I use Starry Night and it can do exactly as you want, showing the sky from any place on earth and moving at any speed you like.
