Aurora colors come from atoms that are trying to shed some of their energy.
In very thin air, oxygen survives in a delicate, high-energy state that emits green light. In denser air, atomic collisions knock oxygen to a lower-energy state that emits red. Nitrogen is a robust emitter that glows bright in even lower, denser layers of the atmosphere.
Beautiful science.

These mean looking sunspots are the cause of the strongest geomagnetic storm (G5 - Severe) in 20 years!
They are really huge, spanning about 16 Earth diameters. Auroras are happening now and probably will continue over the weekend.

I took over 4,000 photos of the #AuroraBorealis last night so it's hard to pick favourites, but here are 4 that stood out. Taken from #Oxfordshire UK (52'N) with 2 Canon 1100Ds with 10mm & 18mm lenses #NorthernLights #Aurora #MidLatitudeAurora #GeomagneticStorm
Right when you need it most, the universe delivers something staggeringly beautiful to sooth the soul.
Victoria isn't particularly known for #aurora, but with the sun being at its solar maximum it's a great time to keep an eye on the night sky.
Despite spending about 9 weeks in Iceland and Norway (during late autumn/winter) the past 18 months, two of the best Auroras I've ever seen have been right here where you normally never see them. Fingers crossed for some more soon!

A reminder that increased levels of geomagnetic activity *are still happening RIGHT NOW* and it's a good idea to take a peak at night to see if there's any #aurora out there.
