Do I really need to say that it isn’t my fault?

Interesting article ping.

I lived in Canada’s far north for decades & heard the northern lights many times. It never occured to me that there was any doubt they made sounds.

Solar flatulence...hot escaping gases...fusion farts, as it were, traveling as cosmic rays to vibrate our ionosphere sphincter.

...and just think...there are billlyuns and billlyuns and billlyuns of these star poots in just our galaxy alone.

In 1989 during the solar storm, we had aurora visible in Huguenot NY.
Down side, I never got to actually see them because I needed the lenses in my glasses changed.
Don’t recall actually hearing anything either.
Except stony silence due to the power having been blasted from the face of the Earth.

I remember when I was first licensed as a ham operator I pointed my 6 element 10m beam due north and made a contact with someone in Reno NV.
I was in northern California at the time.
Amazingly strong reflection off the auroral curtain, the sound was was very ‘watery’. We were both amazed by the contact. Never did see the Aurora at my latitude but the whooshing quality of the audio was quite the experience. And as I remember it, the grid held up, no one died.
