AURORA - the northern lights -OVER CENTRAL EUROPE!




Is it possible to see the northern lights over Central Europe? Of course! It is rare but still can happen! On October of 2003 two powerful solar explosions (X17 & X11) hurled two Coronal Mass Ejections, hit the Earth's magnetic field and triggered Auroras that could be seen even in Vienna! See these beautiful pictures of auroras over Belgium, Germany and Austria!
