      Explanation: Light pollution is usually not a problem in Qeqertaq. In   
      western Greenland the remote coastal village boasted a population of   
      114 in 2020. Lights still shine in its dark skies though. During planet   
      Earth's recent intense geomagnetic storm   
      , on November 6 these beautiful curtains of aurora borealis fell over   
      the arctic realm. On the eve of the coming weeks of polar night at 70   
      degrees north latitude, the inspiring display of northern lights is   
      reflected in the waters of Disko Bay. In this view from the isolated   
      settlement a lone iceberg is illuminated by shore lights as it drifts   
      across the icy sea.
