I don’t talk about space weather too often because it usually does not affect climate or agriculture, but this is too interesting not to share. A new Mars expedition, the Emirates Mars Mission, the first interplanetary exploration undertaken by an Arab nation, today released stunning images of Mars’ mysterious auroras, including some new never-before seen huge worm-like aurora that extends halfway around the planet. You can read more about how auroras are formed from interactions between planetary magnetic fields and the solar wind and see why the Mars auroras are so unique at SpaceRef.com.
