First NLC 2014
Taken by Jesper Grønne on May 20, 2014 @ A brand new DSLR all-sky camera caught what seems to be the very first faint Noctilucent Clouds 2014. NLC-scientist Dr. Peter Dalin, Swedish Institute of Space Physics, Kiruna, think it looks like the first NLC of the new season, shot the night between may 20th. and 21st. 2014. The camera is located in a relatively dark place, at the west coast of Jutland Denmark - perfect for NLC observation. The camera is part of a NLC-camera network round the globe at 56 deg. N., and supplement to a fireball camera network i Denmark. The camera is remotely controlled, Canon 1100D, Sigma 4,5 mm fisheye f/2,8 lens.
