Yukon's Northern Lights

The beauty and majesty of the Aurora Borealis take centre stage featuring footage shot exclusively in the Yukon over a three year period. This variety of Auroral motion and color is set to music, creating an exciting and emotional tone for viewers. One of the highlights of the show is the scientific input regarding the known causes of the Aurora, as well as information and footage of the launch by NASA of the THEMIS mission to solve the Aurora mystery.
