NLC Display? was created by mjs
Just got a call from a club member asking if the clouds to the north here in Kerry were NLC's? They have the right colour and it is nearly late enough at 23:45? Have a look..

Just stepped outside the studio now to have a look Michael, and yes, they are there. VERY obvious display, fantastic, cloudless horizon here in Tullamore except for the Noctilucent Clouds, of course.

Yea, there certainly was a nice display visible after midnight,
I dusted off the canon and got a few images of it.

I'd guess that this was the best so far this year visible from Ireland.

Anyone have an idea just as to how far away these NCL displays are, we know the heights so now how far?
