Another Night of Aurora Light

Over the past few days, I have been rather busy, but I wanted to share a bit of a journey that I went on. There have been very high indices for ggeomagnetic activity in the past week, and there is a high likelihood for geomagnetic activity in the upper atmoshpere for the next couple of weeks. Geomagnetic activity, as well as a high particle count for solar radiation, has resulted in highly visible and spectacular views for the Northern Lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis.

I feel very lucky to live in a place where I can simply hop into the car and drive out to a dark field to watch the Aurora Borealis stream across the sky, fade in and out of view, and shift from green to blue and purple.
I wish you all the best of luck in your pursuit of that elusive phenomenon!
