This week the Aurora Borealis, more commonly known as the Northern Lights, will be turning the skies above the UK a dazzling green.
According to figures from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) the awe-inspiring sight will be visible across much of the UK from around 9pm to 6am over the next few nights.

Ooooh, might try and set up the cam-corder then.
Growing old is inevitable...But growing up is optional.

Don't bother! Best night was last night. Tonight will be quite low power and visible mainly over Russia.

Edit: Looks as though this is updated in real time so you can check what the current conditions are. Red bands north of the UK are worth a half hour in the garden if the sky is clear.

Norwegian tourist office claim that one of the questions they get from American tourists is, "When do you turn the Northern Lights off?"
