Bright and Dark Auroral Curtains
Bright & Dark Auroral Curtains (Norway 2024).jpg
A sky-spanning auroral curtain is here split by a dark area, making it look like a "dark aurora." This was November 8, 2024 between Alesund and Trondheim. Taken from the Hurtigruten ferry ship m/s Nordkapp on the 12-day coastal cruise, with a tour group from Road Scholar. This ultra-wide-angle view takes a broad sweep from the horizon to past the zenith at top, with Orion rising at lower right, with Taurus (with Jupiter and the Pleiades) above Orion.
