Martin McKenna - storm chaser, star gazer, aurora hunter

Martin McKenna from Maghera can often be found chasing storms across Northern Ireland, photographing the Aurora Borealis on the North coast, or star gazing from his telescope in the back garden - and his fascination with the night sky started one dark, frosty night when he stood on his oil tank and looked up, wondering what it's all about!
Anne Marie takes a walk at the Glenshane pass with Martin to learn more about his passion for the night-sky.  Â
