Video Not Working? Fix It Now

In this video, we go over imaging planets with a Dobsonian Telescope and a Cell Phone. I used a Samsung Galaxy S9 to capture Jupiter and Saturn, but also had a few other images running. ****DISCLAIMER**** I used my action camera to record because my DSLR was busy with something else (which you'll see). Because of this, I learned that my action camera is very bad at handling external audio sources. No matter what I did to try to fix it, it only got worse. I understand if you click away, but thanks for trying and stick around for next weeks video, the audio problems won't happen there!
