Default Awesome Aurora activity!

The past few nights, the skies have been bright with aurora activity.

Great pictures on the Anchorage paper's site:

I keep looking to the north in hopes of seeing some down here - but all I got is WIND! Man its windy! Telescope is out in hopes of seeing saturn - supposed to be quite a show, with the rings almost flat toward us...

Night sky is pretty amazing...

Me too.... I think it would be a bit spooky seeing that in the sky rather than just a picture of it though....

Hahaha! Yeah I missed the picture too. Would've loved to see it, never seen one in person.
