Northern Lights Dazzle Across the UK in Rare Display

Spectacular auroras seen from Cornwall to Scotland, marking a significant event due to peak solar activity.

The Northern Lights illuminated skies over the UK, with sightings reported from Cornwall to Scotland, showcasing hues of green, purple, and red.
This rare occurrence is attributed to the peak of the Sun's 11-year solar cycle, increasing the chance of witnessing the aurora borealis.
Photographers across the island of Ireland and Wales captured the spectacle, facing challenges such as light pollution and cloudy skies.
Experts advise aurora enthusiasts to seek dark, clear skies and minimal light pollution for the best viewing experiences.
Forecasting future displays remains difficult, but heightened geomagnetic activity allowed for this widespread visibility.
