Northern Lights from the Stratosphere

COSMIC MESSAGE

Northern lights shine in this view from Earth's stratosphere, captured over Winnipeg, Canada. Energetic particles from the Sun excite atomic oxygen in Earth's atmosphere, creating the shimmering aurora. The 5-second exposure from a speeding aircraft also shows colorful trails of terrestrial lights below.
