How I met Steve: The discovery of a new aurora
Dr. Eric Donovan |
TEDxCalgary
• November 2017
The majestic dance of the aurora borealis has fascinated humans from before recorded history, and forms one of the universe's enduring signals to us from beyond our world.
Dr. Eric Donovan, one of Canada's foremost researchers of these phenomena, takes us through the story of identifying and classifying a new type of aurora with the help of citizen observers, high tech satellites, and lots of patient data crunching.
