Steven Arnold+FollowLast night, I had a magical moment where I thought I was witnessing the Northern Lights.🌌 Last night, I had a magical moment where I thought I was witnessing the Northern Lights. I couldn't help but share a photo I took just before. I had heard that there was a possibility of seeing the Aurora Borealis due to recent geomagnetic storms in California. So, when I saw the sky turn a beautiful shade of pink during my evening stroll, I thought I had hit the jackpot! 💫 🏟️ However, upon closer inspection, I realized that the changing colors were actually caused by the lights of Levi's Stadium reflecting off the clouds. It may not have been the Aurora, but it was still a peaceful and soothing experience wandering through the quiet neighborhood with my tripod late at night, admiring the ever-changing clouds. 🌈 In moments like these, nature has a way of surprising us and reminding us of its beauty. 🌌✨ Hashtags: #cloudcanvas #NorthernLights #AuroraBorealis #LevisStadium #California #NightSky #MagicalMoment #Nature'sBeauty #Clouds34821Share

Michelle York+FollowNight Sky Secrets You Can Spot This WeekStargazing alert! This week’s sky is packed: Vega and Arcturus are stealing the show, but if you’ve got binoculars, try to spot M13 (the Hercules globular cluster—it’s a cosmic cotton ball!). Watch for the Big Dipper’s shifting handle, the Moon cozying up to Mars and Regulus, and Saturn’s moon Titan casting a rare shadow. Venus is a total show-off at dawn, while Jupiter is dipping out.

Nicholas Coleman+FollowDid You See That Wild Space Streak?Did you catch that crazy white streak in the sky last weekend? It wasn’t an alien invasion—just a Chinese rocket dumping its new, cleaner methane fuel after launching satellites. The result? A glowing ribbon that had skywatchers buzzing from Colorado to New Mexico. With rockets using more eco-friendly fuels, expect more surprise light shows during your midnight snack runs. SpaceX does this too, so keep your eyes peeled for cosmic swirls! #SpaceNews #RocketFuel #NightSky #MoneyLifehacks #EcoTech #Business00Share
