Aurora Australis, April 1994
Aurora Australis, April 1994. The curtain form of the Aurora Australis viewed from the Space Shuttle Endeavour, part of which can be seen in top right foreground. Aurorae are caused by the interaction of the particles in the solar wind with the Earths magnetic field. The phenomenon is most visible in polar regions but in times of intense solar activity can be seen at lower latitudes as well

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of the Aurora Australis, taken in April 1994 from the Space Shuttle Endeavour. The image showcases the curtain-like form of this natural phenomenon, with a glimpse of the shuttle itself visible in the top right foreground. Aurorae are created by the interaction between particles in the solar wind and Earth's magnetic field. Typically observed in polar regions, these ethereal lights occasionally extend to lower latitudes during periods of heightened solar activity. The vibrant colors and dynamic patterns displayed by this particular aurora make for an awe-inspiring sight. The photograph serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to witness and document extraordinary occurrences from space. It highlights both NASA's involvement in capturing such images and its role in advancing our understanding of Earth's magnetosphere and atmosphere. Taken during a mission by astronauts aboard Endeavour, this snapshot represents not only scientific exploration but also showcases America's contribution to space research. As part of NASA's efforts to study natural phenomena like auroras, photographs like these provide valuable insights into our planet’s relationship with solar radiation. Preserved by Oxford Science Archive, this print is a testament to human curiosity about our universe and serves as a visual tribute to one of nature's most breathtaking displays – captured through collaboration between technology, science, and artistry.
