This fleeting red flash above a thunderstorm cloud is one of Earth's most elusive electrical phenomena! They're called sprites! Fun fact: This image was captured by citizen scientist Nicolas Escurat through the citizen science project Spritacular. ✨

Comet SWAN is on the move. ☄️ Captured by @NASA's PUNCH spacecraft, comet 2025 R2 (SWAN) can be seen moving away from the Sun as the solar wind blows its tail away, creating the illusion that the comet is “moving backward.” 🔗: https://t.co/GMmjGjHr1s
