New blog post: what can our field learn from psychology? Cofounder of positive psychology Mihalyi Csikszentmihalyi studied happiness in "flow", an in-the-zone, joyful experience that sounds awfully familiar to aurora chasers. Read on: .Image: @YEGHugo

So much possibility to @DoNASAScience with these incredible images and so wonderful to have such a talented photographer on orbit. Some incredible aurora images!.
Star trail from ISS; I think these are a blend of both science and art. There is so much techno-geek stuff to see, or you can simply sit back and think “How cool”. This one shows atmospheric airglow, yellow-green at 120km and the fainter upper red at 400km, star trails moving in

It's an aurora-versary! We are grateful to everyone who submitted reports--both during the storm and afterward--you made it our biggest reporting day in the history of Aurorasaurus! Stay tuned in the coming months for news on our May storm data processing efforts. 👀.
One year ago today, the Sun unleashed a torrent of eruptions that caused the biggest geomagnetic storm in over two decades. Auroras filled the skies as far south as Mexico! 🤩 . But the storm’s impacts reached even farther and wider than you might think. Here’s some of what

This is an incredible mega-thread!.
Have you seen fragmented aurora-like emissions (FAEs)? These small aurora “tick-tacks” are a newly-discovered phenomenon that has important implications in the aurora science community! If you think you’ve seen these in your photos, keep reading to find out how you can help.
