Details:
In Lofoten at Eggum we have a sculpture in bronze of a head, changing position as you walk around it. Last night the sky was clear, milkyway was spectacular as no moonlight was shining. First images from this trip was red, slightly green and clear milkyway. As i just read about SAR yesterday at Spaceweather site, I realized this capture of red light was SAR.
SARs are red arcs of light that ripple across the sky during some geomagnetic storms. They were discovered in 1956 at the beginning of the Space Age. Researchers didn’t know what they were and unwittingly gave them a misleading name: "Stable Auroral Red arcs" or SARs.
