The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in the US said the 'very rare event' was caused by a large sunspot cluster that has produced several moderate to strong solar flares since Wednesday morning. That meant the northern lights could be seen further south than usual

Very cool! I wish I could experience it. (:

Magical!!!

[@NadiaHassan-km7gg]

If it's seen in the summer in more than one country around the world. It's likely harmful radiation from the sun. So unfortunately this is a bad sign and there is nothing magical about this.

[@MariaOC1_]

I saw lights in Co.Kerry, never seen before.

[@CAR_MANN.]

Yes I saw it in Scotland it was the strongest I have ever seen! It is absolutely beautiful and crazy how it was world wide! It’s also very likely tonight too so look out if you didn’t see it last night!

[@macsmiffy2197]

10 years ago I went all the way to Iceland and saw nothing; last night they came to me as I relaxed in my garden with a glass of wine. Magic!✨🌌

[@rachaelvann379]

Finally the uk got to see something for once it was so stunning

[@elizeerasmus6152]

It was even visible in the Northern Cape South Africa😮

Wow

Amazing.

[@supersonicfan3522]

Didn't see any lights but the moon was extremely vivid

[@y_fam_goeglyd]

My daughter sent us awesome pics from a town minutes away from Reading. Despite the street lights, the pictures were as clear, if not clearer than these. We live a bit to the north of her, in a darker village, yet it took night filters on cameras to get barely-there images!

Subhanalah 😮

[@jacksonvega7751]

I’m in the back garden now, in the north west of England, honestly I’m gonna have to go to bed been fittin carpets for 10 hrs today. Enjoy

[@NadiaHassan-km7gg]

I could hear people talking about it in the market yesterday. Some manged to see that in the South East of England, unfortunately I was in a deep sleep when it happened 😂

[@WaveOfDestiny]

At this time of year? In this part of the country? Localized entirely within you kitchen?

[@CountingHouse]

Yes.

[@ardentSherb]

“across Europe and the US” y’all forget that Canada exists or something?

[@Fantasygod930]

Wait when did this happen!? I live out in the country but it's pretty close to the city so my night time sky is always just black void with little dots but when did this happen!?

[@catalinacurio]

In the UK about 11.30pm - got sent pics from Cardiff at that time. Apparently we might see it again tonight after 10.30pm.

[@alanhat5252]

​@@catalinacurioit was photographed from the Thames Estuary as well. I didn't see it it in Swansea though (overcast plus light pollution).

Plausibly the Rainbow bridge of the Viking legends ... and possibly we are entering a similarly convulsive series of climatic and possibly even tectonic upheavals as witnessed by the early Norse settlers of post-glacial Scandinavia...

[@nemanja9275]

Saw it in Serbia

[@JohnBl7167]

Why does the media have a problem with covering the weakening magnetosphere and ongoing pole shift which has a significant affect on the strength and distribution of solar proton storms and is linked to climate change, geological changes and human/Animal functions.

[@craigsmith6512]

Because they don't want people being aware of these things.

[@pastandcurrent]

​@@craigsmith6512because then they can't pretend our cars are the reason for climate change and use it to lock us down in the future.

[@andrewtonks4103]

The media doesn't usually cover things which are not true (though sometimes it does 😞so maybe you will be lucky)

[@pastandcurrent]

@@andrewtonks4103 I mean they spent the last 3 years bullshitting about everything "safe and effective"

Aurora never known before get it taxed

[@BitcoinKal]

"On May 10th, 2024, HAARP conducted experiments to artificially create aurora-like glows or "airglow" in the ionosphere by exciting electrons with high-frequency radio waves. The "Making the Invisible Visible" experiment tested if hot electrons produced by HAARP's radio transmissions could generate an aurora-like phenomenon called STEVE (Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement)." No words...

[@mrsinghsstereos6662]

You won’t get that from a Labour govt

[@makemake5400]

Extremely dangerous

[@pastandcurrent]

The sheep will just look at it and baaaa

[@Felamine]

​@pastandcurrent Aurorae have been happening since the dawn of time little man.

[@thecosmicchild8947]

Can you explain why?

[@pastandcurrent]

@@thecosmicchild8947 because the magnetic poles are shifting.

[@frygonkis]

​@@pastandcurrentwhat do auroras have to do with magnetic poles shifting? Every planet in the solar system, expect mars and mercury has some kind of auroras, would that imply that every magnetic pole is shifting?
