In a very rare display, the northern lights were seen as far south as Kent and Cornwall on Sunday night.
Across more northern areas of the UK, the display was one of the best seen in a very long time by BBC Weather Watchers.
An aurora is formed by a solar flare erupting on the Sun, sending charged particles towards Earth which interact with our atmosphere.
More displays are expected in the coming nights.
The most vibrant display was across Scotland and northern England where the aurora was made up of bright greens and deep reds.
There were also sightings in Northern Ireland, south Wales and Norfolk.
