Who said you can't see the Aurora in strong moonlight with cloud cover ?

[John Murrell]

See the image at http://www.irf.se/allsky/2008/20080921/longexps/LKRN20080921T234900.html I think this is very impressive bearing in mind the moon light & cloud cover.

 

Taken from the all sky camera in the North of Sweden.

 

Might just make this one of the CAS featured web sites if I did not include it last winter.

Hi John,

   Yes the all sky camera was a featured website and can still be accessed through the 'Past featured hotlinks' - scroll down to live Aurora cam.

Then you look through the keograms to find the pictures.

On the same subject did anybody see Joanna Lumley's trip to Norway and Finland to see the Aurora? It was broadcast about a week ago I think but I don't  remember which channel it was on.
