We've all heard of the Northern Lights that sparkle in the Northern Hemisphere, but did you know that there is also a counterpart in the Southern Hemisphere?

“There’s just something about the moon blocking the sun that intrigues people, and me too,” a UNLV student commented Thursday morning on campus when asked about the solar eclipse on Monday. But, how much of the moon’s coverage of the sun will depend on where you are.

I first glimpsed the northern lights on a red-eye flight across the Atlantic. Just a few pale wisps in the night sky were enough to get me hooked on the celestial phenomenon, and my aurora chasing has since brought me to Greenland, Iceland, and Churchill, Canada. Now, my sights are set on their even more elusive counterpart: the southern lights, or aurora australis.

Nevadans will not see a total solar eclipse on April 8, but we will see some of it. The eclipse is expected to cross through the middle of America, stretching 13 states from Texas to New York.

Many airports around the world are applying AI, smart gate allocation and changing boarding methods to reduce flight delays. According to airports, in theory, cutting flight time by a few minutes may not seem significant, but this can help airlines save a lot of money. That also means services for tourists will be improved. Arriving a few minutes early can make the difference between catching up or missing your connecting flight, reducing the domino effect of delays and flights arriving more on time. The approaches being implemented by airports could help air travel operate more efficiently in the future.

Boarding a flight can be stressful as you navigate long queues, the mad rush to get bags into overhead lockers, and try to settle in within the short timeframe so the plane can leave on time.

An airline is set to split friends and family up in new plane boarding rules. One method that is being used by United Airlines splits up friends and families for the boarding process.

Getting passengers on and off planes in an orderly fashion can be a nightmare for flight attendants.
