Aurora (Northern Lights)

[AJellsay]

This would be more rad to see in regular time.. if you have it and can upload, would love to check it out

[layhtm]

Aaammmmaaazziiinnnnngggg

[mugwuffin22]

The Northern Lights are actually the result of collisions between gaseous particles in the Earth's atmosphere with charged particles released from the sun's atmosphere on the solar winds my man. Variations in colour are due to the type of gas particles that are colliding and at different altitudes in which they collide.

[mugwuffin22]

The auroras generally occur along the "auroral ovals," which center on the magnetic poles (not the geographic poles) and roughly correspond with the Arctic and Antarctic circles. There are times, though, when the lights are farther south, usually when there are a lot of sunspots. Sunspot activity follows an 11-year cycle. The next peak will occur in 2011 and 2012, so opportunities to see auroras outside their normal range should be good.

[classicsonic77]

if you dont know whta aurora is this is what it is: see the suns flames sometimes get off the sun and soarch across the solar system when the suns flames hit earth earths atmosphere protects us from the burning heat but the flames go across the surface of the atmosphere and light patterns turn the flames into different colors forming an aurora... yeah im kind of a nerd when it comes to science

[Kilanesa23]

Que bonito!!

[mynameisvoit]

where abouts in bc is this?

[GrubFootProductions]

omg looks so surreal

[TQmx3beatz]

solarflare's colliding with our magnetosphere, that's all. Beautifful none the less :)

[norman191000]

why are the foreground stars (?) moving faster than background, very still stars?

Distances between them are so large that they all should move almost fixed relative to observer (earth)....

[boxerz93]

"Whoa double auroras all the way!" -crackhead from Double Rainbow video.

[kaiibaron]

you need like a pretty trance/techno song along with it. it would complete it :)

[mistrio93]

I MUST experience seeing the northern lights in person before I die!

[momonine53]

@mistrio93 I feel the same way!!

[ahmedalex6606]

I whrited on my christmas list that i wnated to see a northern light :) in real life :)

[mmwarmk]

I have had the pleasure of seeing the northern lights on a few occasions. Only once like seen in the video, but mostly as pulsing colourful streaks across the sky. Still beautiful in its own right.

[NoobsDontLose]

Why are the northern lights never talked about? this is on my bucket list. everyone just talks about hawaii but seriously i will not die untill i can experience these

[RabidChocobo]

@NoobsDontLose

I live in hawaii... we dont have northern lights here :(

seeing them is on my bucket list too D:

[lovedisneywish]

@Thecollaredcrowd :o i love to see one xx it seems beautiful :)

[lovedisneywish]

Does it hurt anything.? i mean theres creepy sounds like lightning?

[TheCollaredCrow]

@lovedisneywish The aurora doesn't hurt anything. It's really remarkable to witness. I lived in Alaska for a few years and saw it multiple times. Once, I was on a plane heading to Anchorage, when I saw the aurora out my window, with the moon in the distance. The moon was a deep blood red behind the aurora. It was incredible.

[dawnnc27]

Glad someone clarified those were planes as I was thinking they were shooting stars also..this video is beautiful..would love to see this in person.

[klridener]

i seen a faint aurora tonight it was like a dark red 

[TheNamesJustinV]

@carrotjuice555 dude I was thinking the same thing haha just get some buddy's put out some chairs and smoke some bowls haha I could smoke and watch it all night if I had the chance

[m4x1170]

I have seen this myself in 2008 whilst driving in a military vehicle will never forget it and I'm so glad i have had the chance to see it.

[carrotjuice555]

Imagine watching this in real life high .. mind orgasm

[ttarkus]

@carrotjuice555 I saw Aurora Borealis yesterday :) But I wasn't high

[MrDaclayman]

definitely on my list of things to do before I die

[ttarkus]

@MrDaclayman Umm excuse me but how does this count on that list? I mean, I can see these almost every winter here in Finland

[MrDaclayman]

@ttarkus your lucky, never seen them in my life, are they nice there?

[ttarkus]

@MrDaclayman Very nice, but in Lapland they're even greater! I haven't been there :o but will. Those woods in winter + northern lights.. awesome. Here in southern Finland a few times per winter usually these come, always as magical.

[floriboyo]

Are those thunderstorms?

[penlama]

i live in mid northern canada. i saw one 2 days ago for the first time in my life. and what a view. it was right on the top of my house. the sky was glimmering with it. i will never forget it.

[1staffpro]

Need to fly space craft around these area, maybe this is a warp zone to the next level of life. A passage way to the other side of space that can travel faster then light speed.

[fouurnall]

absolutly breath taking :) my dream is to see them sometime :)

[AllAboutLUiGi]

I saw Northern Lights lastnight in the middle of City of Regina. It's amazing because theres SO many Street Lights and stuff there, you can't even see the Stars.

[jsschill05]

shouldnt have been fast frw ...

[chilvari]

Beautiful! Just Beautiful! The Earth and all it has to offer is truly a beauty to behold!

[yerkmantm]

so i have a question just because of my lack of understanding, is this all in one night

[agentm31]

Those are planes... Lol

[FliiCiiaa]

So many shooting stars!

[jonnycy1]

@FliiCiiaa Those are planes. This video is sped up dramatically, you wouldn't be able to see a shooting star in it.

[fdgdfdfsssdas]

i love Northen Lights *the weed* LOLOLOL

[timomastosalo]

50 % slower - or the real pace, and it would be even more amazing.

In so many good things slower is better:

Looking at nature, making love - praying Jesus

[muffinsNsausage]

@timomastosalo wtf...



[timomastosalo]

@muffinsNsausage Slower is better - in so many things, listed a few

[muffinsNsausage]

@timomastosalo Yeah, but, it was just creepy as fuck, to me.

[timomastosalo]

@muffinsNsausage so let me guess, the list I gave didn't sound consistent to you?

Is it that making love slowly, and praying slowly don't sound like coming from the same mentality?

If so, i'm sad to hear. in my experience both are best if being honest, devoted, listening the other, and really taking some time for it. 'Fast&quick' in these cases sound creepy to me.

and 'creepy as fuck'... Yeah, fucking can get creepy - sounds much more gentle to call it making love.

[timomastosalo]

@timomastosalo Isn't that creepy that we have started to call such wonderful, and supposedly loving and gentle thing as sexual intercourse so uggly? And derived many gross expressions with that four-letter f-word. Why is this?!

- I think we are so effed up - selfish, violent, pervert, suspicious, vulgar, callous and careless or whatever, you name it - that we cause the all the creepy stuff - not nature, nor God.

God made everything...

Good.

Seen Bruce Almighty? :)

[NightSociety]

when i was a kid, thought it was curtain in the sky.

[MrGabytanase]

so beautiful!!!

[AdamForExample]

@worldlifeable fucking retard there is no god.

[bonezillion]

Aurora Borealis comes in view, Aurora comes in view. And I ran, I ran so far away. I just ran, I ran all night and day....I couldn't get away.

[mikel2187]

I dont have a clue what ive just watched

[gurlzrool]

damn nature, you pretty

[TheSasss1]

wow what a beautiful clip! thanks!

[edro31111]

@TheSasss1 Totally agree. Seeing the Aurora is definitely on my bucket list!

[ekoglen]

@worldlifeable Science dosent say the world end at 2012... But the mayan calander stops at 2012....

[bluegothic96]

@ekoglen actually, mayan calendar doesn't stop there. it just the end of a big cycle calendar, and it will start a new one. The mayans have wriiten the events after 2012, which means Mayan calender didn't really stop there.

[ekoglen]

@bluegothic96 Well either way i don't belive in it

[icecreamman199]

It's made out of plasma so I'm thinking no

[edrickkills97]

is Aurora bad for our planet??

[ohjeezitskim]

Even if I lived there for 50 years, I'd still be amazing every time.

[SD619Slash]

I just wanna get high and sit back and look at that.

[snyper105]

bc bud

[Suckmykiss20]

Everyone should be so happy. Because of the magnetic field the solar storms that glide across the magnetic field causing the aurora. Lets hope we don't end up like Mars and have our core stop spinning and lose our magnetic field. Then we're screwed.

[bieberluvxo]

is that the real speed or is it speeded up?

[missmoose100]

i saw the northern lights for the first time this month. i'm currently living abroad, and in an area that frequently has northern lights displays. finally getting to see them was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. there are no words to describe how beautiful they are in person!

[vindizon]

I saw a falling star.. :D

[deathtrap826]

How did you get this?

[Chamalanza]

It is amazing, Never I saw something like that,

[josh1492]

asshole planes ruin it

[mrA991s]

beautiful Subhan Allah :)

[ManifestPrime]

@mrA991s How dare you worship such monstrosity!!!

[TheLagunaSunrise]

@mrA991s blah blah blallah

[joelspirocks]

@JoyceChristopher "for nation will rise up in arms against nation and kingdom against kingdom and there will be famines and earthquakes this will be but the beginning" mathew 24

[JoyceChristopher]

These lights have been seen over the areas of recent major earthquakes!!! Research HAARP....be informed. Man made eathquakes! Draw close to Jesus...hes the only reassurance of a wonderful future. Believe it or not.... Just a messenger.

[LouisianaBredTexaFed]

@JoyceChristopher

stop with your stupid conspiracy theories! what are you talking about? its nature, nto the government....it happens all the time. its when the sun is in its solar maximum, the peak of its 11 year cycle, its different rays from the sun reflected by the ionosphere. plain and simple. its going to happen again sometime in December 2012 but some scientist think its going to be much more spectacular.

[s0010092]

@JoyceChristopher stop being a bullshit consipracist. ITS BECAUSE OF THE SUN. It does this every few years iu think, its caused the solar energy particles or something, being sucked into the eart by gravity and colliding with particles in the earths atmosphere causing them to set fire with creates light energy like this. Nothing to do with the end of the world, anything like jesus ect, its SCIENCE. fact, not fiction.

[mroscoe]

Where in BC was this? I'm assuming pretty far north.

[jewellery11]

I m so lucky I live in the nwt where almost every night there they are :)

[ilovetogofast88]

Looks like the sky's on fire

NATURE RULES!!

[MrJagfly]

NEED to see this in real life!

[ladani67]

I will die a very happy person if I ever get to see these. And oh I will !!

[paucceri]

I saw a documentary today about how these are formed... but I cant believe any of it. science may have its own explanation this is far too beautiful to be formed by sheer chance. only God could create something this amazing for us to enjoy... God bless u guys

[KaZpucino]

Bye Lucidending...

[votavable]

@SesayyPorshaan455 so am i

[peperonyandchease]

I'd like to know what this really looked like. Every video on youtube of northern lights is time lapse. I want to see it in real time.

[arttechuk]

@peperonyandchease ya i 100% agree i also want to know what it looks like with the naked eye and even tv documentaries show it as time lapse.

[Rosinini1]

this is so cool! look at the stars! absolutly amazing!! 

[x6GreenDayLover6x]

Even though these can be kinda dangerous to be around (radiation dangers), I would like to see them for myself some time

[MrWesthemessify]

@x6GreenDayLover6x lol are u kidding me?!?!?!?

[x6GreenDayLover6x]

@MrWesthemessify Nope. Many people have told me, including teachers and stuff, and I've heard on shows that the northern lights can cause damage if you get too close due to radiation

[uranne]

wow

[snwbrderboi03]

people think this happens all the time in reality it only comes around once in a while and there is a sort of crackling noise when there going on. i would love to get married under these though.

[Alyssalou2012]

Beautiful

[gr111lbbq]

This is incredible! you can actually see shooting stars like they do in the movies! its crazy to think people can actually see what is happening in a totally different world...literally....

[DizzyKayKay]

I live in BC and I have never seen the Northern Lights. :(

[jasperdj]

QUICK! MAKE A WISH!

[1HarryH]

Awesome !

[kevin4rieck]

Suppose to be visible in michigan I hear tonight

[MrWrnb]

[ERFireworks]

@breyerbabe99 nerd

[breyerbabe99]

@ERFireworks asshole

[pinkhotchoco]

Its so pretty! If I saw it in person I might faint because its so beaufitul.

[freshnessbeyond]

[073097able]

[dantastic15]

Can you see the Northern lights in Scotland?

[evilbluebear]

OMG I CANT WAIT TO SEE THEM IN SCOTLAND!!! :O

[TheNarcis088]

OUAUUUUU COOL

[EpikShoCK]

I have 2010/2011 Yllas new year northern lights/ skiing on my channel :)

[philster2k8]

How can one bring 'God' into this? It's purely scientific..

[sjkitlkee88]

I've seen this a few times cause i live in sweden, the northern parts,. You think its beautiful in a clip on youtube, it's even more so in real life

[hecarriesmyburdens]

The God I worship is the author of science. He is AWESOME, and His wisdom is far greater than the wisdom of man.

[rayfreeman11]

@hecarriesmyburdens man is the author of science, lol

[peardan]

Thats truly amazing. I would love to see one.

Great video, I didn't know they last as long as that.

[Donzieja]

I saw them last night (first time, I'm 17) in mokena (south-west chicago suburbs), they were no where near as intense as this, but indeed were a privilege to see, and very beautiful and inspiring.

[goldbullet50]

I see these almost every winter, their pretty awesome.

[ajaisevinah]

are those SHOOTING STARS??!!!!!!:DDD

[hecarriesmyburdens]

Nehemiah 9:6

You alone are the LORD. You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you.

[harktheherald]

@hecarriesmyburdens wrong.

[harktheherald]

@hecarriesmyburdens It is the the Earth's magnetic field that causes these sights. Your god is tiny compared to the size of our universe. Science is how we can KNOW what causes these beautiful phenomena, your superstition is outdated. Leave your egocentric god out of the equation.

[Gushanni]

@harktheherald mmmhmmmm yea sure whatever

[AngelaHxc]

@harktheherald oh my  LOL

[ateniense7]

fantastic

[fdoleron01]

é o espetáculo mais bonito du universo!!!

[ooozeinooo]

seems like space is just as busy as the traffic .. we just can't notice it because .. "we're too fast " ????

[7441bertha]

British Columbia is just beautiful

[dazmalski]

Brilliant - this time lapse can be a real help. The constellations moving in almost 3d like that is also stunning.

[twizy123]

ok who farted

[hereinweymouth]

@twizy123 Probably the same guy who let the dog in.

[JonWallace18]

Watching the stars alone move is amazing but watchin lights with it is 100x more awesome

[ArinOngunTV]

how do people believe in religion i don't see it

[failchawi]

@ArinOngunTV What does that have to do with this?

[buttXOcheek]

is this in fast forward???

[foolplayer101]

@buttXOcheek no..... its in super slow mo

[SpinoKimbaJess]

wow thats amazing

[SpinoKimbaJess]

wow

[misterfattanza]

mamma mia ,,che spettacolo!!

[Josh10193]

Amazin'

[xPaTH2PaiNx]

this is what i think the air will look like after a zombie invasoin xD

[loveberrie]

earth is awesome??? well then do something to save it!

[4darlanzinho4]

loool

[Nilyentaraka]

Who in their right minds could think that something so majestic could be the product of an accident?!

[dredgh01]

@Nilyentaraka lol, quit preaching, no body cares any more, religion is outdated.

[asease1234]

looks really cool! by the way, why all stars arent moving?

[AmaraRoseInc]

@asease1234 my guess is some stars are closer and some are farther away so the further ones "move" more slowly. but thats just a guess and i really dont have any idea...

[williamhad]

why are some stars moving while others remain still?

[sweiland75]

@williamhad because they are not stars

[williamhad]

@sweiland75 what are they then, no matter what they are if they are outside the atmosphere than they should all move.

[Kylork]

Look at the stars. How come half are moving and half aren't? It looks like it's 2 videos layered on top of each other. I'm not knocking the video though.

[Daan013]

@Kylork If you see a car close to you moving at 5 kmh and a car some further to you moving with 5kmh, it will look like the car close to you is faster.

I presume that's what happens here, the stars that don't 'seem' to move are just very far, and the stars that move closer. I don't know if this is totally true but I'm just using my common sense haha

[Kylork]

@Daan013 In this scenario it does not work like that. How else would the constellations stay in their place? Oh well, I'm not really worried about it.

[Jeffparanormia]

@Kylork It's quite obvious that this video has layers of rendering. That is why some have movement of stars and some stars don't move. All stars visible from Earth are so distant that any parallax effects would not be visible in a video clip of this short a duration.

[sirhard2please]

Is this actually real????????

[azrodrigues]

@sirhard2please of course not!

hahahahaha

[RuskinSabereflow]

When does this occur? What time? What season?

[clauditzzaaa]

I WISH I could see this ONCE in my life!! :X

[DrawASketch]

@clauditzzaaa my god, i'm gonna see this TONIGHT!

[TheLoveVSLife]

@clauditzzaaa or maybe more than once :)

[Thornwiegraf]

@clauditzzaaa come live in canada or live in norway XD

[careemntb]

mother fucking god ...why earth so damn beautiful......

[imilkdude]

its like the windows media thing. except 100x better

[Alwaysbaggyjeans]

where is it best to see the northern lights? Iceland or Norway?

[sweiland75]

@Alwaysbaggyjeans Canada

[beem1974]

i love how the stars appear to move as well, because of the earths rotation. this is just beautiful :3

[inspiredclips]

I love the power of nature. Northern lights are truly amazing. Thank you for posting this clip. Best regards. David

[awd111980]

Earth is awesome
