Image Details:

There's nothing quite like sitting under the auroral oval during a strong G3-class geomagnetic storm. Auroras danced across the sky for hours on end and displayed a great variety of hues, patterns, and textures. During the most intense hours, bright flashes could be seen strobing across the sky.
