Aurora

The aurora was out bright on Saturday night in Fairbanks. These are a couple I snagged. The vertical streak in the 3 is a rocket going up from Poker Flats, the rocket range operated by the University of Alaska at Fairbanks. They send rockets up to study the aurora, and are the only university campus in the US to operate a launch facility.

Oh, those are nice. The auroras are seldom sighted here, and every time they say they might be visible, it is overcast.

Depending on where the scapeweather.com shots were taken, they may've had some very similar. But no, these particular shots have not been posted there.
