COLORADO, USA — If you missed the spectacular aurora borealis light show that popped up over parts of Colorado on Thursday night, you may have more and better opportunities to see the northern lights in the coming months and years. A looming peak in the solar maximum should create more opportunities to see the northern lights, including right here in Colorado. Solar storms operate sort of like a heartbeat: They go through cycles. According to NASA , those solar cycles peak roughly every 11 years.
