Observation of dayside aurora have been carried out during the eclipse at \href{http://kho.unis.no}{KHO observatory}, a few kilometers away from Longyearbyen.
However, no northern light was visible with naked eye during the eclipse. The eclipse was, in fact, quite luminous and the sky did not get too dark. The reason is that the Sun was very low - 11 degrees - on the horizon, and the whole landscape was white, so bringing a lot of scattered and reflected light in the sky.
After traveling such a long distance, and waiting the eclipse for hours in a sunny - but very cold - morning, I saw the eclipse from the snow-covered valley of Adventalen. This place became an almost extraterrestrial place during the two and a half minutes of darkness, and it left me \href{https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7kVT2kjSDM&list=LLoQE5NCVFOow1KkR63RVs2g&index=1}{in total awe}.
My journey is still ongoing. I am currently attending interesting seminars and field excursions on the characteristics of snowflakes and the remote sensing of the cryosphere.
Arctic science, I feel, will soon provide us with some new insights on the exploration of extraterrestrial worlds.
