Explanation:
After local midnight on July 14 comet NEOWISE was
still above the horizon
for Goldenrod, Alberta, Canada, just north of Calgary, planet Earth.
In this snapshot it makes for an awesome night with dancing
displays of the northern lights.
The long-tailed comet
and auroral displays are beautiful apparitions
in the north these
days.
Both show the influence of spaceweather and the wind
from
the Sun.
Skygazers have
widely
welcomed
the visitor from the Oort cloud, though
C/2020 F3 (NEOWISE)
is in an orbit that is now taking it out of the inner Solar System.
