Beautiful afternoon for star gazing at -100 F

Here is a link to the camera that is mounted on ARO looking back at the station, if you are lucky you might even see me walking to ARO and back to the station. I usually do that walk in the evening time in Pacific Standard Time.
 I took another time lapse today of the milky way and the some auroras. Today was one of the clearest days we have had all winter.
While the camera was taking pictures for the time lapse I went on the roof with my book of the stars and found a few more of the lesser constellations.
 The Milky Way and the Auroras turned out pretty awesome! The picture below you can see just a tiny bit of the lasers (it was so clear out you could barely see them) and a shooting star!

 We also broke -100 F today. It has been hovering at about -100 F all day. It really doesn't feel that much colder, if anything it was beautiful day because of the light wind.
