Window to watch auroras in southern Canada closing as solar activity declines
Southern Canadians have been occasionally treated to neon-soaked night skies of purples, pinks and greens during a peak in the sun’s activity over the last two years. But the celestial light show put on by the northern lights will dim as the sun moves into a quieter phase of its 11-year cy...
