  1. Andromeda and Sprites over Australia

    What’s happening over that tree? Two very different things. On the left is the Andromeda galaxy, an object that is older than humanity and will last billions of years into the future. Andromeda (M31) is similar in size and shape to our own Milky Way Galaxy. On the right is a red sprite, a type of lightning that lasts a fraction of a second and occurs above violent thunderstorms.

  5. I just realized I never shared pictures of the red sprites, that I caught last year on August 14th.

    They occured over a large thunderstorm complex in the Franche-Comté region in France, about 400 km from my location.

  6. This Gigantic Jet TLE was captured from the International Space Station by
    astronaut Matthew Dominick on July 1st while flying above Indonesia.
    I re-processed the image from the raw file.
