Aurora Slathers Up the Sky

NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE

Like a green smear, an aurora lights up the sky in this snapshot from the International Space Station. About 400 kilometers above Earth, the station is within the upper reaches of the aurora. The green color comes from excited atomic oxygen at these extreme altitudes.
