A band of stars crosses the sky. There are 2 fuzzy patches to the right side. And green and red colors glow near the horizon.
Our friend Meiying Lee shared this image she captured from New Zealand. You can see the #MilkyWay, the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds and #airglow! Thank you!

#PhotoOfTheDay: #MilkyWay and #Airglow
The Milky Way stretches below the curve of Earth's limb in the scene that also records a faint red, extended airglow.
The galaxy's central bulge appears with starfields cut by dark rifts of obscuring interstellar dust.

#Airglow is a faint, natural emission of light in Earth's atmosphere that prevents the night sky from ever being completely dark.
It occurs when gas molecules, energized by solar radiation during the day, release that energy as a subtle, colorful glow.

#PhotoOfTheDay: #Aurora, Meet #Airglow
Two of Earth’s most colorful upper atmospheric phenomena, #Aurora and #Airglow, met just before dawn in this photo shot by an astronaut on the International Space Station (ISS).

#Airglow is a faint, steady emission of light from a planetary atmosphere, caused by atoms and molecules in the upper atmosphere releasing energy they absorbed from sunlight, primarily through photochemical reactions.

#PhotoOfTheDay: Nighttime Over the Eastern Pacific
A long-exposure photo taken from low Earth orbit captured the brilliant illumination coming from #Airglow, lightning, and stars.

#Airglow is a faint, continuous emission of light from a planetary atmosphere that causes the night sky to never be completely dark.
Airglow is caused by day-to-day solar radiation exciting atmospheric molecules and occurs everywhere on Earth.

Nor'west Night
Spring doesn't truly start in the high country until the Nor'westers start.
That's when hot air from Australia (or the Aussies, hard to tell...) blows across in great gales, and pushes out the winter's cold.

#Airglow is the faint, diffuse emission of light by a planet's atmosphere, causing the night sky to never be completely dark.
This phenomenon occurs when atoms in the upper atmosphere, energized by sunlight during day, release the stored energy as light.

#PhotoOfTheDay: #Airglow Blasts over the #Dolomites
Airglow is the natural glow of the Earth's atmosphere -- it forms in the lower thermosphere. These green bands belong to atomic oxygen.

Starry sky with an orange glow on the left side, and a green glow on the right side. There is a gray arch in the middle, over some mountains in the distance.
Amrinderjit Singh captured this panorama of the #MilkyWay from India and wrote: "The sky was amazing and with a very strong #airglow. Airglow is caused by various processes in the upper #atmosphere of Earth." Wonderful capture!

A breathtaking nightscape from Mount Pico in the Azores, Portugal. The image showcases vibrant airglow, appearing as undulating, colorful bands across the sky, caused by atmospheric disturbances. The Milky Way Galaxy stretches majestically across the center, with the Andromeda Galaxy visible near the top left. Faial Island's lights illuminate the lower horizon, a beautiful contrast to the celestial display above.

Early in the season (like right now), the Milky Way arches low on the horizon, giving you the opportunity to create panoramas. #photography #milkyway #astrophotography #stars #Colorado #nightskyphotography #photographersofbluesky #weareroamers #photographersunited #darksky #nightsky #starry #airglow
