Aurorae on Jupiter
Jupiter has aurorae, similar to Earth's. Its magnetic field funnels charged particles from the Sun onto the poles. As these particles hit the atmosphere, they cause gases to emit light. This Hubble Space Telescope image, taken in ultraviolet, shows Jupiter's aurorae.
We cannot put this date's photograph on paper at poster size. We can print the nearest public archive plate to your date instead.
