The Aurora at the Planetarium

 



Prior to COVID, I attended several of these planetarium shows at the nearby university. Today, by chance, I checked the website and found that the campus had reopened to the public so I could now attend today's show.

Roughly about 20 people attended; appears to be a mix of mostly students but some from the public.

Same format as previous: Introduction to night sky with seasonal stars, etc. Followed by the presentation. 

The subject of this afternoon's show was the Aurora, what is commonly known as "the Northern Lights."
