Did you guys see the Aurora Borealis last night? Or have you seen one in the past?

[KostasKouvalis]

Or have you ever witnessed the Aurora Australis, if you're a southern hemisphere person.

If yes, where did you see it?

This was a while ago, but I wanted to show you this

[Red_Arrow]

Much as I would love to experience the beauty and wonder of seeing it, I never have. And I have even spent time in Alaska without seeing it.

[KostasKouvalis]

Damn😂
Yeah, you have to time your visit during a solar storm, and they usually occur in the winter months

I was looking last night, but it was too cloudy and I didn’t see anything but maybe tonight I will , but where was those pictures taken?

[KostasKouvalis]

Northern California.
Even you can't see it with your naked eye, if you have a good camera phone, it'll be able to capture it

I’m in New York and I did try it with my iPhone 13 but it just shows a blue sky at night

[KostasKouvalis]

Are you in the city or in the countryside? I've seen pictures of one over Seattle, but ideally you want no light polution

Maybe your phone isn't fancy enough, 'cuz my phone captured it perfectly, but my dad's phone only captured black sky

[Likes2drive]

It’s a good camera phone, probably the best they make for the iPhone, I’m in the suburbs so it’s not too bad with light pollution here on Long Island away from the city

[IslaTheWitch]

you need a clear sky for this and we are covered with clouds... maybe next time :D

[KostasKouvalis]

You do need a clear sky, that is true

I wanted to see them last night, but it was cloudy here 😪 I've never seen them.

[KostasKouvalis]

Where you at?

[Cutegirl06]

Texas

[KostasKouvalis]

Oh. I think you're too far south to have seen them with your naked eye, but your phone camera might've captured them

I finally saw just a little bit of it last night here in FL. A very subtle purple tint. But better than nothing I guess lol

[purplepoppy]

Slight purple haze that's all. I saw it as a child in Scotland and it was much better up there.

[summiter]

[KostasKouvalis]

Thanks. Where you at?

[summiter]
