I think we can all agree that this is a dragon.

Looks like a goat to me.

I must lack the "it looks like" gene. To me it looks like an aurora. And that's enough for me.

I recall the classic childhood game, my friends and I on our backs on a grassy hillside, looking up at puffy clouds flying by, and each offering our version of what they looked like. "A rabbit", "a car", "a boat", "a cloud". That last one was me and all I usually got for my effort was groans.

Hi there,

I have a question for editors of this photo. You could really help me out if you would tell me how do you make an annotated photo? What software do you use to put drawings and names on the pictures?

Thank you,
Tadas.

This is what we have in store, and worse, when everyone with a few million bucks can build a HAARP ELF Antenna Array and superheat the ionosphere to ungodly temperatures at any given moment. Its the latest craze.. :|

Is every aurora the same ? Same atoms reacting the same or is there a " dna " to CME 's ?
