Sobhan Allah, those pics I copied from the web page of a gentlman who lives in Alaska. I had worked with him last week and he introduced me to this amazing phenomenon, Sobhan Allah Aurora. I took the gentlman's (Mr. McClear) permission to post them on the board in order to observe copy rights.
To do the introduction properly, I thought to copy the exact defintion from wikipedia:
The aurora (plural aurorae/auroras) is a bright glow observed in the night sky, usually in the polar zone. For this reason some scientists call it a "polar aurora" (or "aurora polaris"). In northern latitudes, it is known as the aurora borealis (IPA /ɔˈɹɔɹə bɔɹiˈælɪs/), which is named after the Roman goddess of the dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for north wind, Boreas. Especially in Europe, it often appears as a reddish glow on the northern horizon, as if the sun were rising from an unusual direction. The aurora borealis is also called the northern lights since it is only visible in the North sky from the Northern Hemisphere. The aurora borealis most often occurs from September to October and from March to April. Its southern counterpart, aurora australis, has similar properties. Australis is the Latin word for "of the South.
Sobhan Allah, who Makes them??? And they claim there is not Creator.
