溫哥華夜空現罕見北極光

【新唐人2015年06月23日訊】（新唐人記者嘉蔓綜合報導）有沒有哪個幸運兒昨天看到了北極光？星期一晚因為異常強烈的太陽風，在溫哥華就上演了一場極光秀。

極光是由於太陽表面運動產生的帶電高能粒子，在穿過地球大氣層時發生碰撞，進而產生的顏色絢麗的光影。

通常北極圈的最南端都見很少能見到北極光，但強烈的太陽耀斑讓可見區域擴大。甚至一些人從溫哥華市中心公寓樓都能目睹到這奇異的光幻秀。

I knew there would be solar activity last night, but had no idea of the epic aurora display I would encounter. From our apartment in West End. Just spectacular! #vancitybuzz #vancouverftw #stanleypark #vancouver #aurora #auroraborealis

It's not too often that the northern lights are visible from my city, so I rushed out at midnight to take photos. I ended up being on my feet for 17 hours straight today because of this but it was worth it! Taken at 2:01AM this morning.
