Harmonic produced this show exclusively for NASA TV UHD, using time-lapses shot from the International Space Station, showing both the Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis phenomena that occur when electrically charged electrons and protons in the Earth's magnetic field collide with neutral atoms in the upper atmosphere.
English: This video was taken October 18, 2011 from on board the International Space Station while it travels from just south of Alaska to eastern Cuba. The camera was north-facing, so the Aurora Borealis is visible. Lightning storms can be seen while Chicago and the south end of Lake Michigan pass by in the background.
The aurora is expected to be bright and visible in multiple northern U.S. states Oct. 3 through Oct. 5 as well as from the lower Midwest to Oregon.

The “Aurora Borealis” also known as The Northern lights are expected to shine over the U.S. as geomagnetic activity driven by solar coronal holes will lead to an explosion of color in the sky ...
The aurora borealis, also known as the northern lights, glow on the horizon at St Mary's Lighthouse in Whitley Bay on the North East coast in the United Kingdom. Picture date: Thursday March 23, 2023.
When physicist Anders Ångström examined the spectrum of the aurora borealis, he discovered that even on nights when the aurora was absent, its characteristic green line was still present. It was not until the 1920s that scientists were beginning to identify and understand the emission lines in aurorae and of the sky itself, and what was ...
Aurora australis seen from the ISS, 2017 [1]. An aurora [a] (pl. aurorae or auroras), [b] also commonly known as the northern lights (aurora borealis) or southern lights (aurora australis), [c] is a natural light display in Earth's sky, predominantly seen in high-latitude regions (around the Arctic and Antarctic).
