Celsius first traveled to Germany. Following a visit to the observatory in Berlin, where he worked with Christfried Kirch, he continued to Nuremburg, where his observations of the aurora borealis first appeared in print. As Celsius importantly noted, whenever the northern lights can be seen in the night sky, significant magnetic fluctuations take place. Later scientists expanded upon Celsius’ observations, and today it is believed that the spectacular luminous displays are related to the interaction of atoms in the upper atmosphere of the Earth with charged particles associated with solar wind. The charged particles are influenced by the planet’s magnetic field and descend toward the magnetic poles (... a similar phenomenon is observed along the southern pole of the planet, although Celsius never had the opportunity of observing it).

Celsius traveled for several years, including an expedition into Lapland with French astronomer Pierre-Louis Maupertuis (1698–1759) to measure a degree of longitude (an angular distance of the earth). Upon his return he was appointed steward (manager) to Uppsala's new observatory, a building designated for studying the universe. He began a series of observations using colored glass plates to record the magnitude (size) of certain stars. This was the first attempt to measure the intensity of starlight with a tool other than the human eye.

Celsius was born on November 27, 1701, in Uppsala, Sweden. Both his father and grandfather were university professors, the former in astronomy and the latter in mathematics; it seemed natural for young Celsius to embark on a similar career. He studied at the University of Uppsala and was elected secretary of Uppsala's Scientific Society in 1725. Five years later, he succeeded his father as professor of astronomy at the university. As was common during the period, Celsius soon embarked on a European tour to gain a broader scientific background, practical experience and familiarity with other prominent scientists.
