Using a new all‐sky‐imaging system, M Mendillo, C Barbieri, J Baumgardner, J Wroten, G Cremonese and G Umbriaco observed two distinctive types of aurora over London and western Europe on the night of 26–27 September 2011, including the first ground‐based image of a stable auroral red arc over Europe.
