Time-lapse of the aurorae over Oxford last night! This sequence of 5.5 hours compressed into 1 minute. North is at the top. At times the aurorae were so bright that parts of the images saturated and so lost colour. An amazing display of the dynamical northern lights! #aurora

#NorthernLights from Oxford tonight - a movie!
The camera is oriented so that North is at the top of the images. Orion is seen south of the Moon. This timelapse is speeded up by a factor of 30. @OxfordDiplomat @StJohnsOx

Queen Elizabeth II's reign spanned all of spaceflight, predating both Sputnik and Explorer 1.
As we join the planet in marking her passing, we are moved by the curiosity Her Royal Highness showed our explorers over the years.
