The Northern Lights

The northern lights is a very rare phenomenon here in the UK and unfortunately impossible to predict.

There has to be very strong solar activity to be able to see it as far south as England, although if it is strong activity, we are in a good location to try and view it due to our pristine dark skies and view to the northern horizon and are lucky to see it a couple of nights in the year.

Our Aurora Nights are all about the science behind the Northern Lights, where do the colours come from, why do they happen and where is a good spot to try to see them locally.
