Aurora


SVS >> Aurora
Movie ID Title
Near the peak of the event, it has moved over Alaska. 3513 Auroral Substorm from Polar
Further evolution of the substorm. 3512 THEMIS/ASI Nights
Opening with a view of the aurora borealis, we zoom out to reveal the proposed orbital configuration of the five THEMIS satellites and fade in a GGCM magnetosphere model. 3356 THEMIS Mission and Substorm Simulation
This data was scanned on January 24, 2004 from 20:01:25 UTC till January 24, 2004 20:22:19 UTC. The blue line near the surface day/night terminator is where the terminator is 100 km from the surface. 3165 X-ray Images of the North Polar Region from the Chandra HRC-I Instrument
A snapshot of a high-intensity time in the storm. The bright linear structure in the upper left is an artifact created by the edge of the instrument field-of-view. 2964 IMAGE Views of the Aurora from Space
This animation shows the aurora over the Northern Hemisphere as recorded by the Polar satellite on April 17, 1999. 2891 Aurora over the North Pole on April 17, 1999 (WMS)
A bright moment for the proton aurora - the bright spot near the center. 2861 Reconnection: Solar Wind Breaches the Earth's Magnetic Shield
A maximal time for the aurora (08:09:08 UT). 2857 Geomagnetic Storm: November 2003
The polar regions begin to brighten due to increased influx of oxygen atoms onto the upper atmosphere. 2445 IMAGE/HENA views Oxygen in the Magnetosphere (blue version)
A view of the oxygen atom flux near the Earths poles at low intensity. 2444 IMAGE/HENA views Oxygen in the Magnetosphere (rainbow version)
