I've heard they are even nicer in Canada, but in MN are gorgeous.

remember, if you are seeing red colours. You are bathing in gamma radiation that is hitting the ground. Red northern lights = bad shit.

I'm reading green to red is from oxygene, and purple to blue is emitted from nitrogene. In lower altitudes red and blue mean extremely high solar activity, yeah. I never seen aurora in real, must be nice.

It would be cool if you could see it like that with the naked eye

Ya what people don't know is these are only seen this way through a camera.

Very rarely, like in greenland or alaska, can be seen like this to naked eye.
