STEVE is an acronym for "Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement"

STEVE is a rare phenomenon that has been observed by auroral photographers for decades. On this night in 2018, we witnessed this strange flare in conjunction with the northern lights over Godafoss Waterfall in Iceland (as well as a partial moonbow over the waterfall).

Iceland always delivers things that bend the mind and make you question whether you're dreaming, and this night was no exception.
