It was a northern light show of interstellar dimensions.
The breathtaking film material from space conquered the breathtaking moment when the Aurora borealis danced over the earth – after a geomagnetic storm.
NASA Astronaut Anne McClain recorded the striking video when it is stationed on board the SpaceX Dragon spaceship that is docked at the international space station, the BBC reported.
In the essential clip, which was published on the adventurer's X account, the Greens, purple and red colors shimmer like a geomagnetic Neapolitan ice on the earth's surface.
“I love it how it illuminated our kite, and I also love the dance of the satellites on the left in the last part of the video,” said McClain. “It is interesting how the Aurora crawls on the top of the atmosphere when it comes across the horizon. I added travel to see Auroras from the earth to my bucket list!”
The heavenly fireworks were followed by a sunlight that broke out of the sun on Friday, Space.com reported.
This triggered a coronal mass emissions (CME) – an outbreak of sun material – that banged into the magnetic field of the earth the next day and caused breathtaking aurora to California and New Mexico.
This specific storm hit hard enough to reach G4 level, a sprout below the most extreme level, experts said.
Fortunately, this is not the end of the Aurora displays that will rise during the coming nights.
This is due to a number of “small” geomagnetic storms, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
A coronal mass emissions (CME), which will be triggered by a Sunburst on June 3, is currently winged to Earth – and could possibly give Stargazers a lot of show.
Noaa predicts that the CME could hit home at the end of June at the end of June and illuminates the night in a display that could be so far south if the G2 conditions are reached, Space.com reported.
McClain is not the first to recently film an Aurora from space.
Last month, NASA Astronaut Nichole Ayers recorded a fascinating video of the magnificent phenomenon, as “appeared directly at sunset over the northern USA and Canada”, by post on X.
“The Aurora appeared last weekend when I didn't expect it!” She wrote.
The resulting clip that sat over the earth showed that the Aurora burst from colors, including green, purple and evenly orange.
