Details:
The evening of August 30th 2020 started promising. After sunset, right away the Aurora started being visible dancing to the East and to her right was developing STEVE (Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement). Steve was starting developing shy to the East at the beginning and was getting stronger by seconds, getting strength and eventually moved overhead crossing the Milky Way and forming an arch all way to the West. I was shocked to be able to see it so clearly, despite the fact the moon was out and full, that was very well defined with the naked eye. Practically Aurora and Steve were washed away by the full moon but still very visible… I was trying to image this show without the full moon, would be a spectacular one for sure..
