Wow!

From [livejournal.com profile] apod...

If you haven't seen today's Astronomy Picture of the Day, it's absolutely stunning:



I'm blown away. Contrary to my first impression, it is not a starship approaching a nebula. It is in fact an aurora over a communications tower in Norway.

Yeah. I can't decide whether the pink light is the craft's nose or part of its engines...

That is stunning. It's still one of my ambitions to see the aurora.

Nicely done piccie. Aurora was something I never managed to do successfully in my Astrophotography phase. You quite often got them as far south as Middlesbrough (had to go up into the hills for a decent view though), although Scotland was much much better.

That's absolutely beautiful!
