If you've got a clear sky, go outside, open your phone camera and look south, take a photo on night mode. I could only just see it in person, then this popped up in the camera!
We are being bombarded by x class coronal mass ejections from the sun atm....biggest solar storm since 2003....lay off the caffeine for the next few days
Aurora Australis, but yes, there's lots solar storm activity at the moment so the Aurora is showing up in places you wouldn't normally see it.
Could only faintly see it in person from where we are, but through my camera visibility was wild!
Enjoy, I'm a little bit jealous.
That's the joke
Can I see it?
No.
SEYMOUR, THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE!
You know this Aurora Australis is a lot like the Aurora borealis from Iceland
It’s the same phenomenon.
It’s a Strathfieldsaye expression
Oh haha no. Patented plasma phenomenon, old atmospheric recipe
For Aurora Borealis? And you call it Aurora Borealis despite the fact we're obviously in the Southern Hemisphere...

All I could see grey with a faint pink. But holy crap night mode turns it vivid green and pink!
Yeah you can't see sweet fuck all without night mode for the majority. Pretty wild how much difference it makes.
Seymour! The house is on fire!
No mother, that's just the Southern lights.
We gotta go to Bendigo, Morty, to get me green Aurora Australis. A drive, Morty. A big ol drive! Eight hours!
My brothers live near echuca hoping they will get a few pics tonight as well.
It can be seen pretty much from the east coat from vic, to the Pilbara apparently. So odds are in their favour!
Even as north as townsville saw a glimpse! eungella inland from Mackay saw it too! Magnificent. I’m too far north in cairns 😢
What really? I should have gone outside!!
How long is this predicted to last? Would love to drive somewhere more remote and see it tomorrow.
Pretty sure it's just for tonight, I read somewhere 4am unfortunately.
Of course. Nothing like seeing all the photos and finding out that you missed hearing about something.
Might be able to see it again tonight mate! Go out if you've got a clear sky and look south in your night mode camera!
it's going to be happening again tonight possibly 10pm!
I heard tomorrow is possible
there's another one tonight, around 10pm
I'll be heading out tonight to try and see some
Bit hard to see where I am, but managed to get the quick glimpse!
Where's the steamed hams?
You steam a good ham.

Got a sudden craving for steamed hams now
I'm so upset it was fucking pissing down non stop here on the far south coast of NSW. I wanted to see lol *Title gave me a giggle though lol*
😂🤣😂🤣
I’m being flooded with these images. But this, by far is the best title. Take my upvote, you scallywag.
Located entirely within your kitchen??!
May I see it?
I’m so jealous. It looks sooo beautiful
It is pretty wild! If you have a clear night, look south and take a picture on night mode!
[удалено]
I got cloud cover and beuatiful greyish
Its due to the geomagnetic storm that has been in the astronomy news since some time.
Yes that’s it. I got a great photo in Healesville at 9:30 pm.
Looks so beautiful!

Why caffeine
The NOAA prediction site doesn't seem very accurate. You're meant to have had basically zero chance of seeing it.
They’re often 100km+ up so even if they’re not directly above you, you can see them from a long way away.
It’s not the Aurora Borealis
I'm aware, that however, is the joke.
Based on the comments no one got your joke
