What time does the live broadcast start?
The live camera turns on automatically once the Sun sets below the horizon in Yellowknife. As we approach the winter solstice in the month of December, the camera will turn on several minutes earlier each day (since darkness falls earlier). For example, during the week of September 27, 2010, the live feed will begin around 8:50 p.m. Mountain Time (10:50 Eastern). The auroras tend to be most easily visible about an hour or so after dark. If this is past your bedtime, you can watch the daily aurora replay in the Gallery section, choose a date, or watch the AuroraMAX team’s favourite movies in the Featured Videos section.
