Aurora is the effort:


Aurora is the effort


A poem by Emily Dickinson


Aurora is the effort
Of the Celestial Face
Unconsciousness of Perfectness
To simulate, to Us.

On this day in astronomy history - Northern Lights Aurora borealis:

The view of the Northern Lights Aurora borealis, from our home on Friday, May 10, 2024.
I’ve always loved astronomy and I wish I had more time to dedicate to it.
It was great to experience this rare natural event with my wife.
