Auroral Phenomena

Abstract

IT is perhaps worth a note that my daughter saw at Folkestone a very unusual phenomenon on the evening of January 25, a little before 6.30. Some distance to the left of Orion (for the night was clear and starry) she observed a small cloud of a bright golden hue, from which streamers of great brilliancy darted in various directions, the cloud alternately paling anc brightening. She describes the streamers as like small meteors, leaving trails of light behind them.
