2 years ago I saw and got pictures of #AuroraBorealis during the May 10, 2024 solar storm. The second viewing location was Memaloose State Park, between Hood River and The Dalles, at an overlook above the Columbia River (Oregon/Washington border). Note the reflection of #aurora in the river. #astronomy #SpaceWeather #PNW
2 years ago I saw and got pictures of #AuroraBorealis during the May 10, 2024 solar storm. It was the 2nd time I had seen #aurora, and so far the best. I drove east from Portland and could see aurora while I was driving. I stopped for pictures at Multnomah Falls (Oregon's most popular waterfall) and farther east at Memaloose State Park (between Hood River and The Dalles). First, from Multnomah Falls, note the falls were south and still had aurora in the background. #astronomy #SpaceWeather #PNW

Two years ago tonight I was fortunate to witness one of the best displays of the Aurora Borealis that I have ever seen. A remarkable sky lit up to the naked eye and made more unique as it was covering most of the southern sky. The first shot is a stitch of around eighteen individual shots in order to fit the whole display into one frame #Aurora #NorthernLights #Aberdeenshire #Scotland
SO then the next day/nov 12 since it was going to be good aurora for another evening, I convinced some friends to go with me an hour north of the city to get pictures at the beach; we were the only people there, we saw a shooting star, we saw a fox. extremely good evening. #aurora #photography #x100
in my backyard, from nov 11 last year. I'm south of city lights but aurora was so huge that day I was able to get these pictures facing south! #photography #x100 #aurora

#KnowledgeBit: Sometimes mistaken for #Aurora, #STEVE ("Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement") is an atmospheric optical phenomenon that appears as a purple and green light ribbon in the sky, named in late 2016 by aurora watchers from Alberta, Canada.

The #Phenomenon is not rare, but had not been investigated and described scientifically prior to that time.
