Aurora !!!

I used to know a girl by that name. Aurora B. Alice was her full name, I think. That was a long time ago. :p
 
The heavens declare His glory! That is what popped into my mind. Awesome image, thanks Esav.
 
That is truly amazing.

Makes me wonder what ancient man thought when he seen this.
 
Were you ever out in the Great Alone,
when the moon was awful clear,
And the icy mountains hemmed you in
with a silence you most could hear;
With only the howl of the timber wolf,
and you camped there in the cold,
A half-dead thing in a stark, dead world,
clean mad for the muck called gold;
While high overhead, green yellow and red,
the North Lights swept in bars?--
Then you've a hunch what the music meant . . .
hunger and night and the stars.
................From `The Shooting of Dan McGrew' by Robert Service

They rippled green with a wonderous sheen,
they fluttered out like a fan;
They spread the blaze of rose-pink rays
never yet seen of man.
They writhed like a brood of angry snakes,
hissing and sulphur pale;
Then swift they changed to a dragon vast,
lashing a cloven tale.
...............From `The Ballad of the Northern Lights' by Robert Service

Maybe more like the old Homo erectus song "Fire in the Sky".

I have seen Aurora that big and complex in NWT Canadia in 1992, just south of the Arctic Circle. A lot of the Aurora was south of us in the sky.

I have heard that hissing noise and wasn't sure it was outside my head....
