AuroraMAX is a public engagement initiative designed to communicate the science and the splendour of Canada's Northern Lights, and how the Sun's relationship with Earth can affect our daily lives. The centerpiece of the project is an online observatory that broadcasts the aurora borealis live from Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. AuroraMAX is a collaboration between the University of Calgary, the City of Yellowknife, Astronomy North and the Canadian Space Agency.
