This is one of the most amazing sights I have ever seen!!! “I Aurora spotting and experiencing the Aurora Borealis in Odessa,TX” 🥰🫶🏽🦋look north and you can see them too!! I can see it through my camera lens better but if it is dark enough where you are you may see a slight glow with your naked eye✨

Have a great day!
