Hey Chena,
When I was a young engineer I worked on the rockets shot into the Aurora (Northern Lights) from the Poker Flat range. Your post made me nostalgic...
So you're one of the folks we can thank for all the information we now have on the Aurora. Hey, thanks! Did you enjoy Alaska?
Ah yes, the northern lights. I know some people who can write about them so eloquently, but words always escape me. I should know better than to check the night sky anytime I get up during the night, but it's a habit I just can't break. When the lights are out, you just have to stop and enjoy the beauty and wonder. Our sons didn't share my enthusiasm when they were teens though. LOL
