Our Last Night in Churchill

Tonight was capped with a viewing of the northern lights. They have not been seen every night, and generally it is after midnight that they appear. Tonight most of us made it up to the observatory (Thanks Erin!) to see the lights. I enjoyed watching the lights slowly move across the sky, a fitting end to my last night at the Arctic's edge. Now I need to go pack!

I hope you had fun and enjoyed the trip. I wonder what you wanted to see and didn't get to see like beluga whales.

I did have a wonderful time, and we will discuss a lot of what I saw during class this year. I hope that when you travel you also observe your surroundings, and relate it to what we do in class. Remember - Science in Your World!

I think it is awsome that you were able to see the northern lights. What color were they when you saw them? Also, I know you said the norhtern lights appear after midnight but what is the average time that you con see the northern lights? Lastly, what was the expirience like and what or how much were you able to see from the observatory?
