Aurora in the Night

NASA APOD · Juha Kinnunen
COSMIC MESSAGE

This image captures an aurora, a natural light display in Earth's sky. Auroras are caused by disturbances in the magnetosphere, resulting from solar wind. These disturbances cause charged particles to precipitate into the upper atmosphere. The particles collide with atmospheric gases, exciting them and causing them to emit light.
