I've just received an Aurorawatch app red alert, and it's fairly clear skies tonight at least where I am.
Should be a good chance for #AuroraBorealis sightings from the UK.
Aurora F42 based betas are now available. We also have something new to show you.

Go get it!
Universal Blue · F42 betas are here and some new additionsHi all, This is just quick informative one regarding F42 betas and some future stuff. You can read Jorge’s post which covers lot of stuff and no need to repeat them here. F42 based Aurora We have today enabled Fedora 42 based betas of Aurora images, so come and consume. Just to note that there are still missing pieces (like some akmods etc) but things will improve over time once we near the looming launch of Fedora 42. If you want to test these images, rebasing is easy. It is recommended t...

For users who want to try Linux, I recommend this: Do not listen to people who tell you to use Ubuntu, Linux Mint or other variants. They all use the same complex and often breaking mechanisms, and can cause a lot of hassle.
Instead, I recommend these systems:
- #Fedora #AtomicDesktops
- #UniversalBlue #Aurora #Bluefin #Bazzite
- #HeliumOS
Looking forward to #SerpentOS too!
These systems are reliable like an Android phone, while offering you more freedom.
A few more from last night. #aurora #auroraborealis #northernlights #norrsken
It's been a pretty sad year for me for aurora photography. Got a bit of a show last night. #Alaska #Anchorage #BearValley #Aurora #AuroraBorealis #NorthernLights

EyeOnAlaskaPost- EyeOnAlaskaIt’s only the second time I’ve been able to shoot aurora this winter. We had a short display right around midnight that didn’t last very long, and wasn’t terribly vibrant, but it’s still wonderful to see the lights dancing in the night sky. Click on images for full-screen.
Some incredibly vibrant views from my driveway. While on the previous post we were talking about the greens and purples of the Aurora, in that last photo there is a huge curtain of red above the green arc.
Both these are caused by atmospheric oxygen, but the reds are from oxygen that is higher in the atmosphere. When these gases get hit by the charged particles from the solar wind, they vibrate to expel the positive charge and return to a neutral state. Depending on the amount density of the gasses (lower in the atmosphere has more, higher less) the vibration has a different wavelength that our eyes perceive as light. So reds are happening about 200km in the air with the greens happening about 100km up.
The reds can be somewhat difficult to see with your naked eye but in instances like the second photo they are very vivid to the earthly observer.
