AURORA

Our world creation! Amazingly beautiful...

Aurora Borealis
This was taken on January 18 2005. January 18 was a spectacular solar weather day in 2005. There were two strong X-flares in the days preceding that set up an excellent night of auroras that were visible well into the 48 states. It wasn't the most spectacular day of the season in Fairbanks, but it was one of the two best of the season in general in the Northern Hemisphere. The location is apparently somewhere on Eielson AFB in Fairbanks, which is not the place I took a photo that looks very similar, but I think I may have a photo of that exact formation in the sky taken from a spot about 15 miles to the north.
