AUR_DMSP
|
|
Auroras and Other Lights Viewed from Space: Unique Black and White 35-mm Slides of the Aurora.
a set of 52 slides illustrating auroral variability and other nocturnal lights viewed from

taken between 1973 and 1977 by DMSP satellites. Both Northern and Southern Hemisphere auroras are included. No
photography from the ground rivals these striking satellite views of the aurora's distribution; no photography from the ground
reveals as clearly, with patterns of city lights, the aurora's geographic position. Each slide has a caption
that identifies the date and time, the auroral feature, the geographic area covered, and the level of auroral
and magnetic activity. |

plots of sunspots, solar flares, aa indices, and total solar irradiance. The set also includes historical
photographs of Johann Rudolph Wolf and the Swiss Federal Observatory, 1905. |
