North Texans were greeted with a rare sight on Tuesday night, November 11, as a stunning aurora borealis caused by a powerful solar eruption glowed in the night sky. Fort Worth photographer Matt Lantz captured the dancing geometric storm, which had made its way down to parts of the US that normally don’t see the northern lights. According to the NOAA, a geomagnetic storm is a significant disturbance of Earth’s magnetosphere that occurs when energy from the solar wind is exchanged into the space

The Northern Lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis, lit up the sky over parts of the U.S. They are a phenomenon caused by plasma ejected from the sun during a solar storm, which interacts with Earth’s geomagnetic field. | NBC News
