Northern Lights over Minsk Sea

Night sky illuminated by a weak geomagnetic storm

Northern Lights over Minsk Sea

At night over the Minsk Sea, the northern lights could be seen. During the observation, solar wind activity continued to cause a weak geomagnetic storm, which explains the appearance of light bands in the sky.

Context

Solar winds periodically strengthen the Earth's magnetic field, creating geomagnetic storms, during which northern lights can appear in the sky.

Summary:

The northern lights were observed over Minsk Sea, caused by a weak geomagnetic storm associated with solar wind.
