  9. Red, green... and sometimes even blue #aurorae visible at mid-latitudes! A rare spectacle, evidence of an intense episode of #spaceweather.

    Green and red auroras result from interactions between the #SolarWind and atmospheric #oxygen molecules. Much rarer, blue emissions are caused by the excitation of #nitrogen molecules. All of these phenomena reflect specific conditions in the atmosphere and the flux of incoming particles, which #SpaceWeather models must account for: irap.omp.eu/en/2026/03/a-blue-

  10. Those were beautiful #aurorae in the past days. A solar storm brought a lot of protons to Earth. Not only to Earth but also to #ESAEuclid – but does #Euclid notice? Oh yes.

  11. I think I might have found Mike of the original #Plasma4 version of Diamond fame. This #Aurorae theme has a metadata.desktop file in it, and the author's name in it? Mike, capitalized like that, although that's different from the lowercase and uppercase versions in the Diamond theme. I could be wrong, this could be another Mike, but I doubt that because all the themes listed on staffck1's profile page (whose name is displayed as Mike Staff) are all Diamond. store.kde.org/p/1002697

  12. Artist's view of the #aurorae of #Jupiter's moon #Ganymede.

    The bands of aurorae and their movement are only possible due to a magnetic field generated by movements of salty water underneath the moon's icy crust.

    The salty internal ocean potentially contains more water than all of Earth's oceans combined.

  13. There's an extremely unusual display of #NorthernLights in Maynooth right now: the #Aurorae are very dark grey and have rain falling from them.

  16. [Martian #Aurorae] Unlike our Earth, the planet #Mars has no magnetic field to deflect the #SolarWind. As a result, the flow of solar particles strikes the entire surface of Mars ...

    Instruments aboard @nasa 's #MAVEN probe and #Curiosity rover measured these flows from last month's strong coronal mass ejection. Here's the resulting animation:

    Other videos of this event are available here : nasa.gov/solar-system/planets/

  17. The #sun is reaching the maximum point of activity in an 11-year cycle.

    This means that we can expect more explosive outpourings of particles.

    In the right circumstances, these are what ultimately generate the pretty #auroras in the sky, as well as the geomagnetic storms that can damage infrastructure such as power grids and orbiting satellites.

  18. With the solar active region, that has produced the spectacular May 10 auroras, having rotated into Mars view, and unleashed the largest flare in 20 years, the Curiosity rover is on the hunt for Martian auroras.

  19. I wonder how crazy it would be if the aurora borealis (or australis) would become visible in the tropics. 🤔

  25. Saturn in ultraviolet light captured by Hubble in 2009. The rings are nearly edge-on. Two auroras are glowing at the planet’s north and south poles.

  26. Webb detecteert poollicht in een extreem koude bruine dwerg

    Met behulp van de JWST hebben astronomen een bruine dwerg gevonden met infrarode emissie van methaan, waarschijnlijk als gevolg van energie in de hogere atmosfeer. De verwarming in de bovenste atmosfeer die deze emissie aandrijft, is gekoppeld aan aurorae.

  27. #ESAEuclid is a space mission. While that means it's not susceptible to rain and clouds, it is affected by "SpaceWeather"!

    The #sun ☀️ is ramping up its activity in the #SolarCycle, and when emitting substantial bursts, these will be noticed by 🛰️ #spacecraft - and Earth. For #Euclid this can mean many more hits by #cosmicrays.

    (👉🏼 See also: euclid-ec.org/whats-in-euclids)

    For Earth this can mean #aurorae! This picture of an #aurora above #Edinburgh just now was taken by our EC member Gordon Gibb.

  28. My window decoration for inactive windows had been off for months. I wanted them to be blurred, but this was not the case.

    Turns out, "if transparent decorations should receive a blur effect, an element named 𝚖𝚊𝚜𝚔 must be provided" (develop.kde.org/docs/plasma/au).

    Damn, it was as easy as that 😅

  29. Hier mal ein Beispiel-Frame des #Aurorae-#Zeitraffer von #LastTroet. Oben unbearbeitet, unten (stark) bearbeitet, um die #Nordlichter besser sichtbar zu machen.

  30. Lots of reports coming in on social media of this record breaking geomagnetic storm that is generating the aurora borealis further south across US, Europe, etc. If the sky is dark and clear, do check out the night sky usatoday.com/story/news/nation #astrodon #astronomy #aurora #aurorae

  31. Mh, da bin ich Montag Abend nach Bad Iburg gedonnert um #Aurorae borealis zu fotografieren. Und die einzigen Fotos, auf denen was zu sehen ist, sind die ersten Ausrichtungs- und Setupfotos. Später mit "besseren" und schärferen Einstellungen: nix mehr :-(

  32.
