On the night of August 12, a strong geomagnetic storm triggered spectacular display of Northern Lights which was visible as far south as Georgia. This concided with the Perseid Meteor shower reaching its peak with up to 90-100 per hour. It was an incredible opportunity to record this event. Perseid Meteors rained through the sky in a blazing display of celestial fireworks, leaving dust trails from the comet Swift-Tuttle. Mars was bright that evening and you can also see Jupiter in close conjunction just above the horizon. Pleides cluster, or the seven sister stars as they call it in Greek, was glowing as the aurora borealis beamed through the north eastern sky.
