new england
We know aurora in mid and lower mid latitudes requires attitude, knowledge and determination.
Find your people. Know your sky.
You are the reason we prove the others wrong.

Mid Atlantic
We share the same challenges. city lights, latitude constraints, timing, knowledge gathering. We don't just wait for Aurora to appear, we track it, we learn it, we learn its behavior, anticipate its next move, and ride the wave.
Knowledge is power. Aurora is elusive, not impossible.
Its easier when we tune to its frequency, and tune to each other.
There is plenty of sky for all.

ECAC
Determined to succeed
YES we are biased. Because we want success when we want Aurora!!!! This field is curated with what we feel works best for our area, in our ways. You don't have to like it all (...but have some respect).
We all took a lot time to bring this to you over a lifespan of knowledge and research, both in our local environment and through universal science.
We are not here to do the work for you, we are here to unify the community, bring together good people, good intent, good knowledge and hopefully find a better way to advance science in the process.
Why... ?
Because we are going to succeed together.
Our Future
We don't know exactly what's next, but we have big ideas!
