 Lost Place enthusiasts will get their money's worth here: in the UFO Village in Wanli near Taipei/Taiwan, a settlement of Futuro and Venturo houses by the Finnish architect Matti Suuronen is left to decay. Once planned as a holiday resort on the South China Sea, the unusual buildings now stand there like wrecked mini spaceships.

This is a 360° panorama of the May 10/11, 2024 great aurora display, when the Kp Index reached 8 this night bringing aurora to as far south as the southern U.S. Here, from my home in southern Alberta, Canada (latitude 51° N) it is exhibiting very odd vertical blue and magenta rays across the western (left), northern (bottom), and eastern (right) sky, and an odder bright patch to the south at top. This was toward the end of the main activity of the show for me this night, at about 2:30 am. These distinctive blue rays appeared like this only at this time after the main show died down.

A panorama of weak Kp1-level auroral arcs in the moonlight, on February 15, 2024, from the deck of the Churchill Northern Studies Centre, Manitoba. This is an example of the kind of low-level aurora that is almost always present at locations like Churchill under the main auroral oval. The northerly lower arc did not appear until close to midnight, as is typical for weak displays. It was then joined by the broad dim arc at centre reaching overhead. Note the dark streaks in the wide arc.
