Brightest Northern Lights Display
It is the nature’s most compelling light. Experts predict that northern lights will shine at their brightest level in 2012.
According to NASA the aurora borealis has been growing in intensity since 2007 and will grow to its peak in 2012.
This event will be caused by Solar Maximum; it is a period when the magnetic field of sun on the solar equator rotates at a slightly faster speed than at the solar poles.
This solar cycle takes an average time of 11 years from one Solar Maximum to the next. Last Solar Maximum was seen in 2000 and scientists predict that the next one (which will be) in 2012 will be the greatest since 1958.
Orvar Thorgiersson, an Icelandic software engineer who has been taking photographs of the event, said: “there are nights in which the lights are so bright you can actually read a book beneath them. They are brighter than moon.”

Sigur Rós in an Icelandic newspaper 1995
“It’s a type of surreal music. Kind of dreamlike music, but all our material is original.” says Ágúst Gunnarsson, drummer in the band Sigur Rós, playing in Djúpið, Hafnarstræti 15 tonight.
Along with Ágúst in the band are Jón Þór Birgisson and Georg Holm. Jón Þór plays guitar and sings but Georg plays the base. Tonight the boys will also be assisted by Kjartan Sveinsson who plays the saxophone, flute and piano.
The band is just about a year old and its members are 18 and 19 years old. Sigur Rós has not played much in public except for a few school concerts.
The concert tonight begins between ten and eleven and admission is free.
