The Prelude to the vivid substorm, taken on the 16th October 2003, is
reflected over the wide open Tanana River. The band had already moved south
of where I was. All images © Ulrike Haug.

Let's Tango
Submitted by:
Ulrike Haug at Wed Oct 22 08:32:01 2003 UTC
On the night of the 16/17th October 2003, the lights were very vivid and
errupted in a Tango of a substorm. Here the purple edge of the green curtain
was not that intense yet, but as the tango continued and the partner bands
drifted apart, the right band turned into a bright and vivid purple.

Weather balloon launched
Submitted by:
Ulrike Haug at Thu Mar 27 23:19:01 2003 UTC
On the 5th of March shortly after moonset, the aurora picked up in activity.
The first part of the display showed quite a bit of red as Poker Flat
launched a balloon, leaving a red trail as it climbed, to check the winds.
Although the aurora was excellent, high winds in the upper altitude
prevented them from launching that night. More images can be viewed at

The rays of the aurora teased the big dipper, weaving in and out of the
stars, tempting the dipper to capture the light beams. You can view more

The aurora danced during the equinox night, as if celebrating the arrival of
spring. The moon had not risen yet, thus the display was the center of
attention. You can view more images at www.AlaskaAurora.com Images are ©

Moose and Aurora
Submitted by:
Ulrike Haug at Mon Dec 2 09:06:01 2002 UTC
While photographing the aurora, I heard some crunching sound in the snow and
soon discovered the dark spots in the snow. Shining my lights let me realize
that a moose cow and calf were in the neighborhood, searching for food under
the aurora lit sky. What a treat! I kept my distance to both animals and
enjoyed their brief presence. © Ulrike Haug, www.AlaskaAurora.com

With the warm temperatures we have had this fall, the Tanana River was still
wide open on the 5th November 2002. The aurora danced with its reflection
doubling the beauty. © Ulrike Haug, www.AlaskaAurora.com

Submitted by:
Ulrike Haug at Sat Oct 26 03:04:01 2002 UTC
A quick glimpse that was taken during the brief aurora substorm that we saw
from Interior Alaska on the 23rd October 2002 (around 5:50 UTC 24.10.2002).
The lights became so bright that the ice and snow reflected the green color.

April Blues
Submitted by:
Ulrike Haug at Wed Oct 23 17:47:01 2002 UTC
In the fading of the mid April darkness, the aurora dances softly in the
remaining twilight leaving me with the April Blues, until fall brings back
the dark nights and northern lights. © Ulrike Haug, more images can be

The Green Range
Submitted by:
Ulrike Haug at Tue Oct 15 06:30:01 2002 UTC
Following a spectacular evening twilight, the aurora soon followed and
graced the starry sky. At some stage the auroras got so intense that the
mountain range reflected the green color of the lights on 4. October 2002.

Church and Aurora
Submitted by:

It was after midnight and certainly in the ghostly hours as I took this
photo of the Russian church with a faint glow of the aurora behind it.
