Did you know.... Earth's Aurora is mainly green due to a high concentration of oxygen in the lower atmosphere. You can observe the presence of different atmospheric gas by studying a planets Aurora, if vissible. If you find earths northern lights fastening then check out Jupiters northern, southern lights! They seem to be never ending!

I lived in Alaska for four years while I was stationed there while in the Army. I was fortunate enough to see something like this a few times and it was truly breathtaking.

Did this hike in the middle of the summer. Take gloves or buy some from the park. The cables get hot!

Great place to visit. Arguably better than the national parks just across the state line.

Did it last summer, was great! One more tip, get a decent winery tour, we had a private one that drove us to 3 of those and the price really was not that bad for all the wine, food and beautifull scenery you'll get. Easily the 2 most memorable things ive ever done.

arrived in Alaska for first time Sunday afternoon and was at Baldy Sunday night and the deep red was nestled between waves of this pink and green was visible to the naked eye and every bit as rich as this picture shows. I was unaware these deep hues and/or this intensity were even available to the naked eye but the activity on Sunday evening was...🥲. Thanks for this!

This was actually taken at 11. I thought it was a professional astronomical telescope!

I'm the manager for the Telemetry & Radar department at Andøya Space. Small world indeed! ACES II was an amazing launch.

For those who don't know do note that this is an ancient secondary crater, the main active craters are higher up and you can't see them in this picture.
