These are good cookies.  Me and my mom made these at home and they turned out nice. My mom started out with a stick of butter and put it in batch. Then my mom put in a teaspoon of vanilla and put it in there. Then we slowly added eggs.  Then after that we added baking powder, flower, and salt, alternating with milk. After an hour of chill time, we put mounds of dough on a cookie sheet and added the peanut halves. The we placed the cookie sheets in the oven at 375* on "Bake." When we brought the cookies out, me and my brother taste tested them, they were good.

The Northern Lights are constantly in motion because of the changing interaction between the solar wind and the earth's magnetic field. The solar wind commonly generates up to 1000,000 megawatts of electricity in an auroral display and this can cause interference with power lines, radio and television broadcasts and satellite communications. By studying the auroras, scientists can learn more about the solar wind, how it affects the earth's atmosphere and how the energy of the auroras might be exploited for useful purposes.

An important centre for this type of geophysical study is located in Sodankylä, a small community in the heart of Finnish Lapland, at latitude 67.4 degrees north. It is an excellent location for probing the secrets of the earth's geomagnetic field. It was here that the Finnish Academy of Science and Letters established a geophysical observatory in 1913. Today, the Sodankylä Geophysical Observatory (SGO) is run by the University of Oulu. In addition to research the observatory performs routine geophysical measurements at its different stations. They produce ionosphere, geomagnetic and auroral data as well as seismic, cosmic ray data from Finland.

The observatory and its associated research units nearby form a scientific community devoted to work that has global significance. There are high hopes that the brainwork of the scientists will also have beneficial effects on the local economy in this part of Lapland. The idea is that the findings of scientific research can be used to attract high-tech firms to the area, generating jobs and stimulating commercial activity. Already tourists can visit the privately operated "revontulikota", an auroral observatory and planetarium built in the shape of the traditional Lapp dwelling that is known as a "kota".
