Subtitle: We were supposed to be able to see the northern lights
(auroa borealis) on June 24, 2015.  So I went up to Mt. Pleasant
by the Cornell observatory to check them out with a few co-workers.  
Turns out we couldn't see any of the lights, but it was a really 
clear night and a even though the observatory wasn't open, there 
were a lot of people out there and I took a bunch of pictures of
the stars.

DSC_8033: Cool looking stars, visible on the bigger version.
DSC_8034: 
DSC_8036: Sparse star field.
DSC_8037: A plane was flying overhead.  It was a pain to twist the tripod
to orient it so I could get the plane (it was flying almost straight
overhead) but I did.  The streaks are the plane's lights (position 
and anti-collision).
DSC_8040: A picture of a group of people near us.
DSC_8041: A longer shot of people near with a tripod.
DSC_8042: Silhouette of Deepika using my tripod to take some star pictures.
DSC_8046: Another star field.
DSC_8047: 
DSC_8050: A shot looking north, with the glow of city lights and the 
silhouette of poewr lines.
