Skywatcher Imelda B. Joson and Edwin L. Aguirre took this photo of the aurora from a plane on March 8, 2012. They write: "We were on our way from Boston to Los Angeles at the time, cruising at an altitude of about 34,000 feet somewhere over Minnesota. We knew the chances of seeing auroras that night were high — a powerful X5-class flare had exploded on the Sun's surface the day before, sparking a moderately strong geomagnetic storm. So at the gate we asked the airline agent to switch our seats to the right side of the plane so our cabin window would be facing north."

Skywatcher Shawn Malone took this photo March 8, 2012. She writes: "Caught a nice outburst of northern lights last night ... aurora over Lake Superior, Marquette, MI taken early this morning. I'm sure you know there will probably be some major activity in coming days — I'm definitely not used to the frequency of this activity! We're going to be fighting clouds, but I'm sure many others will succeed. Before 2010, I went 3+ years of not seeing the lights. This pick-up in activity is welcome indeed."
