Aurora Australis Alert.....

[ramblingboy42]

Tonight and tomorrow there should be huge opportunity to see the Aurora Australis from southern Victoria and Tasmania......not to neglect any kiwis here, it should be shining brightly and colourfully from many Southern coastal areas in Australia and New Zealand.

Put some pics up if you can photograph it.

Would be good, I've never seen one. City lights here are too bright for observing faint objects.:(

One day I will head far enough south to see it. Would love to see the northern lights as well.

[debruiser]

Same. Maybe we should organise a trip bearman

but satellites around the sun will pick it up before it hits earth and give us some warning.
