Episode 28
After a dazzling display of an aurora over Southern Tasmania, Liz wondered how this phenomenon fits within folklore and witchcraft. Exploring auroras lead Liz down the path of space weather witchcraft - a form of solar witchcraft.
In this episode Liz covers:
- Liz's attempt at science behind space weather
- Sciencey stuff about auroras
- Auroras in Folklore
- Space weather witchcraft.
Liz understands that the specifics of space weather will not interest everyone, so please skip the sciencey stuff if needed.
