A spectacular manifestation of the Aurora Borealis this month in Iceland. The Medieval Vikings might have interpreted this as a sign from the gods. But no: science. To wit:
The aurora was caused by a hole in the Sun’s corona that expelled charged particles into a solar wind that followed a changing interplanetary magnetic field to Earth’s magnetosphere.
Still.

A fairly internet-breaking 360 degree, 8K time-lapse of the Aurora Borealis over Fairbanks Alaska during the lunar eclipse at the end of January.
You’ll be wanting several viewings at full screen with music up and plenty of mouse dragging to peruse the atmospheric eye candy.

The Aurora Borealis – visible in polar regions where it illuminates the northern horizon at night – is notoriously difficult to capture.
But not impossible.
