Active aurora band

7.10.2018 at 22.00 - 01.00 - Hämeenlinna (III)
Markus Kauppinen

I already noticed a movement in the sky as soon as the darkness fell. I didn’t leave until 10pm and left home at 1am. All that time, a big calm arch was visible in the north. A few times during the trip, the northern lights danced / blazed wonderfully for a few minutes. Mostly green, but was among purple and even red. The picture below is from the brightest moment, when the northern lights were very clear even in the city lights.

Partial lunar eclipse

7.8.2017 at 21.43 - 22.33 - Hämeenlinna (III)
Markus Kauppinen

At first, it seemed that the clouds would block observations of a partial lunar eclipse, but at 21.43 the moon began to appear on the horizon.
