An aurora is a dazzling spectacle to witness down here on Earth, but from space, you get an entirely different perspective on the light show. While most of us won’t have the opportunity to see the beauty of an aurora from space first-hand, astronauts have captured stunning images of what an aurora looks like dancing over our planet.

In February, NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli shared her view of an aurora from the International Space Station, writing on X (formerly Twitter): “Sometimes I can’t believe this is our planet, OUR home. How lucky we are to live somewhere so spectacular and alive. I will definitely miss these views, but I look forward to exploring more of our planet and the beautiful views from the ground.” Moghbeli’s photos show a green aurora australis dancing over the southern hemisphere with the ISS in the foreground.

Unless you have a flight to the ISS booked, you’ll have to settle for experiencing the beauty of auroras from space in photographs. Thankfully the photos are quite beautiful too.

Featured in the bay are the antennae for the SIR-C/X-SAR imaging radar instruments, illuminated by moonlight. The crew sighted the southern lights (aurora australis) several times during each of the eleven days of the mission. Image: NASA

Looking northward across the Gulf of Alaska, over a low pressure area (cloud vortex), the aurora brightens the night sky. This image was taken on March 21, 2008. Image: NASA

a green aurora line in a dark skyAstronaut Don L. Lind, mission specialist, termed this scene of an aurora in the Southern Hemisphere as “spectacular,” during a TV down link featuring discussion of the auroral observations on the seven-day flight. This scene was captured by astronaut Robert F. Overmyer, crew commander, using a 35mm camera. Dr. Lind, monitoring activity in the magnetosphere at various points throughout the flight, pinpointed the spacecraft’s location as being over a point halfway between Australia and the Antarctic continent. There are moonlit clouds on Earth. The blue-green band and the tall red rays are aurora. The brownish band parallel to the Earth’s horizon is a luminescence of the atmosphere itself and is referred to as airglow. Dr. T. Hallinan of the Geophysical Institute of Fairbanks serves as principal investigator for the auroral observations experiment and spent a great deal of time with Dr. Lind in preparation for the flight.

green aurora over cloudsA 35mm frame of the Aurora Australis, also known as the Southern Lights, photographed from Space Shuttle Discovery’s flight deck by one of its seven crew members. One of the mission objectives was to measure the spectral and spatial characteristics of auroral emissions. While passing over the sunlighted portion of Earth, the crew was able to take a number of photos of the various geographic points on the planet; much of the time on nightside passes was devoted to a thorough study and documentation of auroral displays.
