This is some of the best sun timelapse stuff I've seen.


Lots of great footage, but see in particular 9:29 - 10:34.  If the sun is 93 million miles away, it should NOT increase in size like that.  It absolutely looks like it's coming closer to the camera.

12:15 - 13:12 ... watch it get smaller and move in a straight line as if in a perspective line.

The excuse for the apparent size change of the sun is typically "glare" and that the real size doesn't change.

That doesn't work.  As the sun sets, it should actually increase in size due to the increasing humidity in the air closer to the ground level.  Those videos taken from above the clouds, where there would be less atmospheric distortion, clearly show the sun getting significantly larger as it approaches the camera.
