SEE PHOTO----- Two (2) COMPLETE, ORIGINAL NEWSPAPERs, the Independent Chronicle & Boston Patriot (Boston, MA) dated Sept 1 and 12, 1827. These newspapers contain front page descriptions of a rare appearance in MASSACHUSETTS of the AURORA BOREALIS, the Northern Lights which were visible in Massachusetts in Sept, 1827.
The Northern Lights are not seen often in Massachusetts but there are historical references to them, including in the fall of 1827.
Polar lights (aurora polaris) are a natural phenomenon found in both the northern and southern hemispheres that can be truly awe inspiring. Northern lights are also called by their scientific name, aurora borealis, and southern lights are called aurora australis. Although more frequent at higher latitudes, closer to the poles (such as in Canada, Alaska, Antarctica), they have been seen closer to the equator as far south as Mexico.
