From Tromso, Norway, a pretty picture for your enjoyment. I am jealous (of the photograph, not living in Tromso in February).

But yeah, I don't wanna live there, just visit at the right time :-)

A shuttle launch would be nice too, but I am guessing that isn't gonna happen.

  I saw the aurora once in 2001... in Arizona! It wasn't the green sheets like this, but instead it was a bizarre deep red glow in the north. At first people thought it was a fire reflected off clouds, but there were no clouds, and once you got out of town you could clearly see the stars behind it. I had recently finished reading the Night's Dawn trilogy by Peter Hamilton, and if you've read that, you will know how troubling a weird red glow in the sky would be. :-)
