It was an honour to be interviewed by NASA Science Live @DoNASAScience. Thanks @spaceyliz for including citizen scientists like me in the @TweetAurora Aurorasaurus project...I’ve learned so much from you! I encourage anyone with an inkling to participate.

Tonight, as an extreme cold warning was issued across much of Manitoba, this #aurora timelapse shows the #northernlights intensifying as a polar vortex pushed windchills close to -47° C in South Indian Lake, Manitoba. Braved the cold just to capture this. 🥶🥶 @AuroraNotify

Last night, over the high latitudes of northern Canada, the sky reminded us who is really in charge. As we passed near Iqaluit, the darkness above the Arctic began to move. Curtains of green and violet light rose, folded, and dissolved again, four fleeting scenes from a

Absolutely stunning footage of last night’s geomagnetic storm as seen from the ISS. Russian cosmonaut Sergey Kud-Sverchkov said it was like flying straight through them. https://t.co/OrQko80SMc

Perhaps the clearest example of "flickering aurora" that I have captured occured last night over Fairbanks. Take a look at the auroral arc in this clip. You can see the arc "jittering..." these are really 15-20 hz pulsations and are not a trick of the eye!

This is looking south. I’m not up to par, so hoped to view the #aurora from home. However my south views are not great. 🤔 #manitoba

Beautiful Aurora over Alberta, Canada🇨🇦 at 4am this morning! A tricky event to catch from Alberta; the solar storm arrived earlier than expected, resulting in very stable Aurora conditions while we had clear sky until 9pm. Fortunately, the skies cleared up briefly this morning!

This happened five minutes ago from my driveway in North Pole, Alaska. Incredible brightness and colors filmed in real-time. The last two days have just been insane up here!
