Empire Bluff Aurora

by Tyler Leipprandt of Michigan Sky Media

After walking the mile-long Empire Bluff Trail in the dark, I got to my spot and began setting up. At 11 pm, the Sleeping Bear Dunes woke up and put on the most incredible show for almost an hour. At around 11:30pm, the top of the sky was welcomed with what scientist call STEVE, known as a Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement, which is different than just the Northern Lights, and a lot rarer. A STEVE will appear as a picket fence and be tall columns of green light high in the sky, as opposed to an Aurora which is shimmering ribbons of lights. Many people chase the Aurora over their lifetime, and will rarely get to see STEVE.
