COLOR ARTWORK
Aurora by David A. Hardy, FIAAA
Recently Dave was lucky enough to go on a cruise to Norway for the sole purpose of watching aurora. His quest was successful, resulting in this painting.
Aurora Planet by Mark A. Garlick
If you like watching aurora, you'd love it here. This is a planet in a close orbit around one of the stars in the RS Canum Venaticorum binary. Each star has gigantic episodes of magnetic activity that create huge starspots, some of which have actually been imaged.
