From APOD 10/3

Just thought I'd share yesterday's APOD since it was really nice.

Aurora and Milky Way in a Little Sky

Explanation: Stepping stones seem to lead to the Milky Way as it stretches
across this little sky. Of course, the scene is really the northern
hemisphere's autumnal equinox night. Water and sky are inverted by a top
to bottom, around the horizon stereographic projection centered on the
zenith above Lake Storsjön in Jämtland, Sweden. In the north the Milky Way
arcs from east to west overhead as fall begins, but the season is also a
good time for viewing aurora. Geomagnetic storms increase in frequency
near the equinox and produce remarkable displays of northern lights at
high latitudes, like the eerie greenish glow reflected in this watery
cosmos.
