On an unsettled week, there was one clear event that stands out... the strongest solar storm in over two decades delivered a vibrant aurora overhead.

Reaching as far south as the Alps, the classic green and red hues of solar activity were on show across the UK and Ireland, where gaps in the clouds could be found.
