NORTHERN LIGHTS CRUISE | 2200
Report from Eldey and Elding: Before even setting off our passengers were arriving and admiring the northern lights. We then sailed out past the Imagine Peace Tower and beyond Lundey with the auroras always above us. They faded in and out a bit but we could always see them on our phones/ cameras. Every so often they would get brighter but none of this compared to the amazing show we had waiting for us at the end of our tour. Suddenly they appeared really bright above Reykjavik and started dancing everywhere. The sky was full of green and red (!) lights it was so beautiful!

What are the northern lights? The bright dancing lights of the aurora are actually collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun that enter earth's atmosphere. The temperature above the sun surface is millions of degrees Celsius. At this temperature, collisions between gas molecules are frequent and explosive particles enter the earth's atmosphere.
