Realizing that an album would probably be the best way to organize all the available raw materials (original images) related to astronomy and space sciences. Then the album as a whole can be contributed to appropriate collabs.

{Edit, thanks to Via] Also check out Nasa's Astronomy Picture of the Day Archive at http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/archivepix.html for tons of gorgeous images. Caution - not all are public domain, but the Nasa ones are.

Meteor_shower
An image found on google depicting some sort of meteor shower. To me it looked like Northern Lights, hence the title. Should also fit well to the first couplets of this song.
