A mother-son duo, making unforgettable memories 💖. The light wasn't super bright but we saw a star-filled sky, Milky Way, and glowing northern lights. The chase was fun, stopping at many viewpoints. We love these special moments, and being part of your unique experiences. Thanks for chasing the aurora with us, traveling all the way from South Korea 🇰🇷!

Do you know how to forecast the aurora? We do! We love studying the moon phases, not worrying about the Kp, and using technology to best determine when and where to see the lights.

You can always count on our aurora team to work hard and put you in the best place at the best time for a potential northern lights show. However, dealing with earth weather and space weather can be unpredictable at times. The aurora borealis is a fickle phenomenon, but know we'll do our best to find those amazing sweeping lights!

There has been a lot of rain in Anchorage lately. A lot. However, in between rainstorms, our dedicated aurora team managed to find a great spot for a spectacular show two nights ago! 🥰 Look at this sky, it was dazzling all night. We are still thinking about it. Mission accomplished!

In 1927, at the age of 13, Alaska Native Benny Benson entered a contest to design a flag for the Territory of Alaska.

The design appealed to the people of Alaska, thanks to its simple, yet powerful design of eight yellow stars on a dark blue background - a color that symbolizes the Alaska sky and the Forget-Me-Not flowers that announce the arrival of spring.

Raise your 🖐️ if you've been to the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitor Center in Fairbanks, Alaska.

It is one of our fave locations to take visitors thanks to its focus on Indigenous Peoples of the area and how they have thrived in this harsh section of Alaska for millennia.

A family who chases aurora together, stays together. It's a fact. 😁

Alaska measures 1,420 miles (north to south) and 2,500 miles (east to west). Anyone know how many hours it would take to fly in an airplane from one end to the other?

Right now you're probably seeing lupine all over, and will through September here in Alaska. While lupine looks like a wildflower, it is actually a member of the pea family! That's right - it's a legume!

Drop us a ✋ if you knew that.
