Synopsis
Two hundred miles north of the Arctic Circle, near the jagged tips of Norway’s crown, the sun does not set for weeks on end during the summer months, and the midnight sun bounces off fields of midsummer snow.
Sami herders call their work boazovázzi, which translates as “reindeer walker,” and that’s exactly what herders once did, following the fast-paced animals on foot or wooden skis as they sought out the best grazing grounds over hundreds of miles of terrain.
An aurora borealis is a natural light display in the sky, especially in the high latitude regions, caused by the collision of solar wind and magnetospheric charged particles with the high altitude atmosphere.
The Finnish name for the northern lights “revontulet” is associated with the arctic fox. According to a folk tale, moonlight is reflected from the snowflakes swept up into the sky by the fox’s tail.
A fulldome show for planetariums and digital dome theaters.
