Stunning Aurora and even a couple of meteors included. I’m coveting the starry sky too!

[@susanhelmer1]

I saw those when I watched it editing it. Auroras are few and far between on that cam, but when they are produced, it's spectacular! And that sky is something else.

Very good! 👍

[@susanhelmer1]

Glad you liked it! And thanks for watching!!

[@stephyadcock1233]

Absolutely stunning. Thank you for sharing. I'm ashamed to say I'm not familiar with southern hemisphere constellations. Was that the coal sack nebula I could see in the middle?

[@susanhelmer1]

Hey @stephyadcock1233 - This is my 1st time watching the southern hemisphere. The sky on that cam is stellar! I believe you're right about the Nebula. The souther cross is usually on display too.

[@jpopelish]

This is fine, though somehow disconcerting for a northerner to see the sky swing the other way.

[@susanhelmer1]

Agreed!
