I wonder if it’s hard to do an MRI up there when those things are going.

Sounds like an exercise in goofy but I hope they got some data

Ben, thanks for posting. Interesting!

Seismometers can sense aurora, and we can hear them!

I guess Jesus was right when he said the rocks themselves will cry out. I know he didn’t mean magnetism but.....

Thanks. Seeing tha northern lights has been on my bucket list for years, haven’t made it yet.

When engineers were designing the Trans-Alaska Pipeline they had to account for the current produced by the Aurora. It is measurable 6” below the surface of the ground and could play havoc with the pipeline sensors that monitored the flow of oil.

When I worked on the North Slope I witnessed the most amazing display of Aurora that I will ever see. I wound up laying on the ground looking straight up. Imagine being inside a glass dome with someone pouring fluorescent green paint over the top of it and it shimmered down to the horizon for 270*. It was +30* and calm so nobody froze that February night.
