Aurora over the South Pole

I have a friend whom I have not seen in 15 years. Recently we got back into contact on Facebook. He's stationed on the SOUTH POLE! Yes you read that correctly. A few days ago he wrote about seeing the sun for the first time since the Antartic winter started. I told him I would be interested in any pictures from his description. It was 110'F when we talked... for him it was -90F.

He also sent me some Aurora Australis pictures
