Looking for a little bit of relaxation? We can’t think of a better way to find it than by watching one of the most serene natural phenomena out there: the northern lights.

Every night, Explore.org and Polar Bears International are streaming a view of the night sky from the Churchill Northern Studies Center in Churchill, Manitoba, which wildlife lovers will recognize as the site of Explore’s polar bear cams. The light show peaks in winter and early spring, so now is prime time to tune in. Catch the stream below, or on Explore.org.
