Last October 10th 2024, a magnificent aurora borealis illuminated skies around all Europe. Even on such southern places as Calar Alto Observatory, Almería (South Spain), the aurora could be observed plenty of red light. May be the most impressive effect were the pillars, an unusual phenomena rarely seen on southern latitudes like Almería.
The four truly beautiful photos were taken by our Technical Astronomer Samuel Góngora García. Videos below (accelerated and timelapse) are taken from the external cameras pointing to the north.
