Bremen only catches the aurora during strong geomagnetic storms — it needs roughly Kp 8+ for the northern lights to come into view. Here's tonight's live space weather and how to plan around it.
How to see the aurora from Bremen
Get away from city lights — even 20–30 minutes out makes a big difference.
Face north and find a clear, low horizon in that direction.
Let your eyes adjust to the dark for 15–20 minutes.
Check the live forecast before you head out — and again once you're there.
Bring a camera or phone in night mode; faint aurora often shows on camera before the eye.
