In the vast expanse...

I've been on the net since 1994. This is my first blog. I have no idea why I waited so long.


aurora borealis: [forget about the phonetic keystrokes, folks ;0)] [[L, lit. norhtern aurora: see Aurora & Boreas]]irregular, lumonous phenomena , as streamers , visible at night in a zone surrounding the north magnetic pole and produced in the ionosphere when atomic particles strike and excite atoms; norhtern lights


I have this thing for the Auroras Borealis and Australis. But, I guess someone else does too on Blogger.com, because I couldn't use any of the permutations of names I came up with. And rather than add numbers, I decided to abbreviate the Webster's New World dictionary entry for the words and go by Luminous Phenomena.

So, for my initial post, I shall cast my particles into the vast expanse of the net and see what illuminates.

Peace

The Northern Lights are so amazing to watch. I saw them for the first time last summer and it was incredible!! Now they were only the light blue kind...not the amazing show that the true north gets, but I will take it. Incredible what nature can do!!
