Details:
So we have already had a terrific evening with lots of green Northern Lights when suddenly a subtle band appears all across the sky. Straight away I suspected, it might harbour something else than regular green. And it was! First faint, but in no time it came bright purple in a camera. And all that in a crystal clear sky. Since touring have been difficult lately to see the Northern Lights, some of the first international guests (German, Austrians, Unites States, Taiwan and Switzerland,) were very happy this evening.
I suspect it to be a proton arc. Or is it a STEVE?
