Aurora borealis in the Appalachian Mountains of Virginia
The northern lights appear over a ridge in the Appalachian Mountains in Shenandoah National Park, Luray, VA, May 12, 2024. Aurora borealis and australis were visible across much of the earth after solar coronal mass ejections caused the most intense geomagnetic storm in the last 20 years.
