An unexpected aurora

Image Credit SOHO/NASA. Despite no coronal mass ejections recently (takes a while to load), we had an auroral display in Tasmania last night. Apparently the earth has intersected a solar current sheet, setting off a minor display visible at high lattitudes. People reported pale green glows, pulsing green curtains, and some rays.
