Aurora Watch!!!!

aurora images
WooHooo!!!! Not one, but two Coronal Mass Ejections (CME's) are heading our way.... Sunspot #798 erupted twice and launched 2 coronal mass ejections towards Earth. Skywatchers should remain alert for aurora after dark tonight & tomorrow night (8/23 & 8/24). Given the waning phase of the moon, this could be perfect timing. A good dose of the northern lights would be just what the doctor ordered. Checkout these sweet aurora images I took back in November when the skies last lit up for me.
