Wow! Sept 9 2011 images!
Wednesday, 14 September 2011

This weekend represented a great opportunity to witness some dazzling displays of the Northern Lights. Not only did a large storm cause a huge disturbance of the magnetosphere, but it occurred at just the right time to send out a timely alert and, importantly, it was warm weather! Thanks to the following people for sharing images (and videos!) of their observations: Ron Palmer, Bruce Smith, Stephanie Chan, Adrian Gerlich, Zoltan Kenwell, Luc Shih, Mike Isaak, Marina Ibrishimova, Peter Stahl, Davin Martinson and Olivier Du Tr�.

Keep scrolling down, we've had lots of submissions for this event!
