F. Wagner Schlesinger, demonstrates the Aurora Borealis in miniature exhibit: a large tube filed with gas. The photograph is dated in a Chicago Park District Office of the Comissioners note on the back: May 16, 1946. The Park District-written caption in this note reads: The Adler Planetarium is the headquarters for rainbows, halos, Northern Lights, and blue skies this month! Wagner Schlesinger, Planetarium Director demonstrates how the "Northern Lights" are produced to two visiting officers of the Philippine Army: Lt. Rufino D. Ageavili and Major E. R. Lazaro. The Northern Lights display at the Planetarium is shown daily as a feature of this month's lecture, "Rainbows and Halos".
