Visiting our North?

There are some beautiful things to see.

I saw the most amazing display of northern lights once flying into Churchill (DHC6) while over Hudson's Bay. Every colour in the rainbow and it went on for quite awhile. No camera, no iPhone invented but it will remain the best display of the Aurora Borealis for me.

Beautiful. 

Churchill (YYQ) used to have a rocket range whose purpose for a time was the study of the Aurora Borealis. Someone once told me it was an area of higher northern light activity. Not sure if that was true or just a good location to launch rockets.
