Red, green... and sometimes even blue #aurorae visible at mid-latitudes! A rare spectacle, evidence of an intense episode of #spaceweather.

Green and red auroras result from interactions between the #SolarWind and atmospheric #oxygen molecules. Much rarer, blue emissions are caused by the excitation of #nitrogen molecules. All of these phenomena reflect specific conditions in the atmosphere and the flux of incoming particles, which #SpaceWeather models must account for: https://www.irap.omp.eu/en/2026/03/a-blue-aurora-observed-in-our-part-of-the-world-a-rare-and-revealing-phenomenon/

Those were beautiful #aurorae in the past days. A solar storm brought a lot of protons to Earth. Not only to Earth but also to #ESAEuclid – but does #Euclid notice? Oh yes.

I think I might have found Mike of the original #Plasma4 version of Diamond fame. This #Aurorae theme has a metadata.desktop file in it, and the author's name in it? Mike, capitalized like that, although that's different from the lowercase and uppercase versions in the Diamond theme. I could be wrong, this could be another Mike, but I doubt that because all the themes listed on staffck1's profile page (whose name is displayed as Mike Staff) are all Diamond. https://store.kde.org/p/1002697

Artist's view of the #aurorae of #Jupiter's moon #Ganymede.

The bands of aurorae and their movement are only possible due to a magnetic field generated by movements of salty water underneath the moon's icy crust.

The salty internal ocean potentially contains more water than all of Earth's oceans combined.
