This past Thursday, I had the rare opportunity to see the northern lights (aurora borealis) in Sackville, NB. This isn't the first time this year that a solar storm has made them visible in my area, but it's the first time I've gotten to see them. The first couple of times I missed because I don't read the news or go on Facebook (oops). My friends and I drove to a couple of places around town and had a great time, and I got a couple of pictures:
This is the second impressive meteorological event that I've had the privilege of witnessing in the past year, the other being the total solar eclipse, which I watched last spring from Shediac, NB.
