NASA shared this incredible image of an aurora taken from the International Space Station.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) on Tuesday shared a remarkably beautiful image of an aurora taken from the International Space Station as it flew above the American state of Utah.

The brilliant light show happens when charged particles from the Sun collide with the upper reaches of the Earth’s atmosphere. The Earth’s magnetic field steers most of the particles towards the planet, which is why most auroras happen near the pole.
