Reykjavik: Street lighting in Reykjavik will be switched off for an hour Wednesday evening to give residents of the Icelandic capital a better view of the Aurora Borealis, city authorities said.
Most parts of the world´s northernmost capital city, including the centre, will go dark from 10:00 pm.
"Residents are invited to join in by turning out the lights at home so as to maximise the darkness and minimise light pollution," the local government said in a statement.
The Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, are multi-coloured natural illuminations caused by interactions between solar winds and the Earth´s magnetic field.
