Pretty. Didn't know Auroras were that bright or that may be part of the sun setting.

WOW!

I thourght Aurora Borealis were more Orange & Blue than Red & Yellow & pale Green!
& Definetley less bright!

whoa, that's funny, when i was living in Michigan U.S.A., one of the most interesting thing happened is the Moon rose while a full blown Aurora was going, it was so bright you can see your own shadow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The brightness of the Aurora Borealis is entirely dependent on the power of sun flares. We are just emerging from a period of minimal sunspot activity, so expect to be amazed by some spectacular light shows in the next few years.
