Northern Lights Means Aurora Borealis

10 07 2008

White people like ancient Greeks and Romans.  Aurora was the Italian god of the morning and Boreas meant the wind.  It’s a cool name, and I like learning more about this kind of history.  Did you know that Ben Franklin made people know about it.  Northern Lights is a better name.

Here are some pictures I didn’t take.

That’s from a airplane:

See the wing?

This one is Alaska:

Bear Lake

Isn’t that cool!

Now let’s look at some NASA pictures.

This one is from Australia:

From outer space

They could have used a Canon IS lens for this one, like the 100-400 L:

That\'s Canada

Now this one is wild but I think it’s in Photoshop!

A space station

And then I think these are like nature’s fireworks.
