Aurora over a boreal forest near Fairbanks, early January. An unexpected geomagnetic storm lit up the sky, with temperatures around -25°F. Nothing seems to move in that cold. The air is always so quiet and still.

Vertical photograph of the aurora borealis over a boreal forest near Fairbanks, Alaska. Bright green aurora curtains and rays fill the upper two-thirds of the frame, sweeping from left to right with vertical streaks descending toward the treeline. The sky is dark with scattered stars visible between the aurora bands. The lower third shows a stand of black spruce heavily loaded with snow, their pointed tops silhouetted and lit green by the aurora glow. A snow-covered clearing is visible at the base of the trees. No people are visible.
