Look out for the Northern Lights!!
 
Apparently the Aurora Borealis will be visible in some parts of the UK from around 9ish, due to a solar storm reaching the Earth!!!

Omg how exciting. Will have a look later.

LaLaLand 11-10-2021 06:17 PM
Do you know where in the UK you can see them most? Probably not here (Wales). :sad:

Apparently there's the CHANCE they'll be visible all over, but up North is the most likely!!

A few of my workmates saw it last night - I didn't know to be looking!

Did see Jupiter and Venus very bright and clear earlier in the evening though. My wife's just got a new phone (s23 ultra) and the zoom on it managed to capture both as clear "planets" (little globes) which was fascinating on a phone camera! We do have a "proppa" telescope but I can never be arsed setting it up.

Yeah that was my thoughts - usually with the "naked eye" (or naked phone) planets just look like very bright stars, but caught on phone camera last week you could clearly make out the light/shadow detail of them being little spheres.

Like I said still not enough to over-ride my laziness, and our telescope remains in the dusty cupboard :joker:.

It was like £500 and we've used it twice in 5 years :umm2:.
