I remember the intense aurora of August 4, 1972. I was in high school, living in northern lower Michigan, and I've never seen such a sight. There was a corona right overhead with pulsing reds, pinks, purples, blues, and greens fanning out into curtains on the horizon. I swear I could hear them buzzing. I've never seen anything like that since.
