One of the most beautiful aurora pictures I`ve ever seen as a result of CME that hit Earth on 9/Jan

Breathtaking !

Yup, I love that. I was hoping for aurora here last night but no luck. Thank you for sharing.

Some of those actually look like a hand. Another I saw looked like a baby animal. Funny how we see things that we know.

So what is it pointing at anyway?

Look to the north tonight and hope you get lucky ...That x class flare is not looking like it's going to be a big deal but you might get some aurora effects ....A good site to check on ,on a daily basis for this kind of thing is www.youtube.com... I picked up the link from another thread and am glad I did ....peace

Thanks for the link! I don't think there is anything in nature that can top this phenomenon.

Such awesome beauty...! We missed out on them here. Too many clouds...

Maybe one day the universe will gift me with a sighting of them...

This one looks good enough to be an HD wallpaper!
