Our hearts and thoughts go out to everyone affected by the wildfires in the Northwest Territories. Unfortunately, the launch of the AuroraMAX live camera has been postponed. Stay safe and check back here for updates on this season’s launch.

A classic auroral arc last night, Sept 26-27, 2022, with strong red curtains at times, and just the barest hint of a red SAR arc overhead in the fish-eye lens image. Mars was rising in the curtains to the east. This was from near Gleichen, Alberta. @TweetAurora
We're BACK! The AuroraMAX camera will be up and running TONIGHT! We've got a beautiful new look too - learn about the AuroraMAX project and the aurora, see movie replays, and view our live feed over at https://t.co/8kAexTlIqv
The AuroraMAX team is hard at work dusting the camera off and preparing the live feed for the season. We appreciate your patience, and we’re excited to say that our nightly broadcasts will resume very, very soon – and the season seems to be off to a great start. Stay tuned!
