Yes. This was one of the highlights of the time that I have been involved in astronomy. I sat in my front yard in Layton and watched the display all around me. To the north it was so bright it looked like the Moon was rising. Above us the sheets of green were changing to red and over the mountains towards Morgan it was a deep red.

It's been a while. Anybody remember this incredible display? The aurora literally outshone the SLC light pollution (our own Joe Bauman was the writer for this story, BTW): http://www.deseretnews.com/article/834488/Utahns-marvel-at-colorful-auro ra-spectacle.html _______________________________________________ Utah-Astronomy mailing list Utah-Astronomy@mailman.xmission.com http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/utah-astronomy Visit the Photo Gallery: http://www.slas.us/gallery2/main.php
