In this extremely brief time lapse video by Doc Edgerton, the sun sets through the glass doors of MIT's Lobby 7. What can't be seen is that the sun illuminates the Infinite Corridor, which extends from Lobby 7 through several buildings. Is this a film of the famous MIT-henge event that occurs twice a year at MIT, in November and January -- when the sun actually shines for a few precious minutes along the entire 250-meter length of the corridor?
