Meteors and Aurora over Germany
NASA APOD · Chantal Anders
COSMIC MESSAGE
The night of August 11 and 12, earlier this week, was unusual over central Germany. Perseid meteors streaked across the dark sky as bits from Comet Swift-Tuttle crashed into Earth's atmosphere. Even more unusually, the sky glowed purple due to aurora caused by a solar particle explosion days before. This auroral storm was a rare sight for the region.
