Abstract
THE aurora borealis was visible here on Sunday night, May 6. We have difficulty in identifying it in this neighbourhood without spectroscopic aid, because the lights of Liverpool and its suburbs extend over the eastern horizon, and the sky to the north-east and north is filled with a glow from Bootle and Birkenhead, these several lights often giving, with clouds of varying height, effects resembling northern lights.
