A photographer in Germany pointed his Nikon Coolpix P900 camera to the sky a few months ago and zoomed in living up to the camera-maker's pitch that the "sky is no longer the limit." His results are now going viral.

On its website, Nikon explained that its camera also has a 166x dynamic fine zoom in addition to is 83x zoom.
