Aurora Australis in Mississippi?!


The sky is ever-changing and it fascinates me, this photo was taken yesterday and when I commented on it and took the photo, my six year old nephew sprung into a commenting frenzy. He explained to me that the reason the sky was so beautiful and had so many colours, was that the colours come from Antarctica. Apparently the lights in the sky (aurora australis) migrate around the planet, and lead to beautiful sky everywhere. The logic of a 6-year-old always amazes me.

I'm not sure your nephew's interpretation is accurate but it is still a fantastic sky.
