This is a cute representation and it clearly illustrates how many eyes were on the skies over the past few days. I hope this means the collection of aurora photos from citizen scientists during this solar storm will be overwhelming! Contribute photos here:
The Northern Lights created a jaw-dropping show across America this week from coast to coast 🤩🤩

Please help us do citizen science! We're looking for photos of the aurora to collect and map the responses from Tuesday night's (not last night's) event! Please follow the link below to submit your photo to the database, and we'll show you the map when it's done!

Radiation levels increased as a result of the powerful X-class flares that officers from November 9 to 11, and the coronal mass ejections arrivals’ brought additional particles. Listen in on special precautions that were taken by the ISS due to the solar storms this week:
Some communications with ISS regarding sleeping arrangement changes due to the solar storm:
