ESA astronaut Tim Peake took this image from the International Space Station during his six-month Principia mission. He commented: "The ISS just passed straight through a thick green fog of aurora…eerie but very beautiful.". Credit: ESA/NASA

NASA Astronaut Scott Kelly captured this photo of an aurora from the International Space Station on June 23, 2015.

The dancing lights of the aurora provide spectacular views on the ground, but also capture the imagination of scientists who study incoming energy and particles from the sun. Aurora are one effect of such energetic particles, which can speed out from the sun both in a steady stream called the solar wind and due to giant eruptions known as coronal mass ejections or CMEs.

On 15 September 2017, 711 photos were taken by ESA astronaut Paolo Nespoli to create this time-lapse of a stunning aurora.

CME, które dotarło do Marsa wywołało znacząco większą rejestrację siły wiatru słonecznego.

Large Solar Storm Sparks Global Aurora and Doubles Radiation Levels on the Martian Surface
SEPTEMBER 29, 2017

(...) The solar event on Sept. 11, 2017 sparked a global aurora at Mars more than 25 times brighter than any previously seen by the MAVEN orbiter, which has been studying the Martian atmosphere's interaction with the solar wind since 2014.

It produced radiation levels on the surface more than double any previously measured by the Curiosity rover's Radiation Assessment Detector, or RAD, since that mission's landing in 2012. The high readings lasted more than two days. (...)
