We start out in a substorm growth phase where energy is building up in the magnetotail. What shows during this time are arcs drifting south and eventually out of the field of view. Then things look quiet until the substorm sets off, pushing bright, colored and very dynamic aurora back into the field of view from the south. After the substorm some pulsating aurora is barely visible, but soon a new growth phase sets in with arcs appearing and disappearing, brightening and dimming. As can be seen it is no simple nor predictable process. After the end of the time lapse the sky looked quiet for ~30 minutes, just long enough for me to give up and pack down the equipment before a second substorm blazed across the sky. Aurora near...
It's towards the end of the season; soon the sky won't get dark enough for auroras, and already now a blue glow is visible on the northern horizon throughout the night. It starts out with a typical growth phase where a southward drifting arc indicates that energy is building up in the magnetotail. The following substorm is not a very distinct one. The energy appears to be unloaded only partially, and relatively bright and structured aurora continues after the brief, substorm-like event. Unfortunately, the time lapse was interrupted in an untimely manner by a coating of ice forming on the camera lens. Aurora near...
Only modest auroral activity was expected this night, and so much greater was the surprise to realize that the camera had captured what appear to be 3 separate substorms in less than 3 hours (usually you'll be lucky to see one within 2 hours of the last). The onset of the last substorm (1:23) is extremely bright and impressive, but lasts less than a minute and is too fast and dynamic for a time lapse. Aurora near...
A coronal hole high speed solar wind stream is stirring the magnetosphere with KP=4-5 as a result (active to minor storm levels). After sunset arcs are slowly drifting south, changing in appearance after 23:10 asa substorm has started somewhere to the east closer to magnetic midnight. About 15 minutes later it sweeps through the field of view, followed by pulsating aurora for hours. Towards the morning an arc starts structuring and brightening, indicating another substorm cycle going on as the sky becomes too bright to see it. A crescent moon adds to the scenario the first part of the night. Aurora,...

To begin with the sky looked as if it hadn't been worth the effort, but eventually curtains of aurora started drifting south, indicating energy building up in the magnetotail. Finally an unusual substorm set in, first sweeping overhead from the west, then pausing curiously to end up sweepingback overhead from the east. The highly dynamic aurora during the substorm makes it hard to tell such details in a time lapse. Aurora,...

NASA's THEMIS mission with five identical probes will track the aurora-dynamic, colorful eruptions near the Northern and Southern poles. These eruptions are linked to energy releases in Earth's magnetosphere, called substorms, and their trigger mechanism has remained a scientific mystery. When the five identical probes align over the North American continent - every four days for about 15 hours - scientists will collect coordinated measurements along the Sun-Earth line. This will provide the first comprehensive look at the onset of substorms and how they trigger auroral eruptions. Twenty ground stations in Northern Canada and Alaska with automated, all-sky cameras and magnetometers will document the auroras from Earth. This will give scientists the first comprehensive look at the phenomena from Earth's upper atmosphere to far into space.The planned launch date is 15th February 2007. THEMIS

With no moon and hardly any light pollution the sky is pitch black at the beginning of the time lapse until the aurora brightens up during what looks like a small substorm. After that the sky is dominated by pulsatingaurora the rest of the night with an arc occasionally brightening to the north. Pulsating Aurora
A fast flow from the west over the hills gives rise to lee waves with clouds forming and dissolving as the air is forced up and down when passing the wave structures. The sky conveniently clears temporarily as an auroral substorm takes place. The moon (half) adds to the scenario. Alaskan Night

It's towards the end of the aurora season, and an almost full moon helps illuminate the sky (though hanging low, outside the field of view). The blue tops of the auroral arcs come from resonant scattered sunlight, showing that the sun is still shining up there (probably 150-500km altitude). After having waited for 2 hours, watching the relatively quiet arcs, it was thrilling when the substorm finally set in ~1:20 with a mix of blue, green and pink colors (though the blue could only be seen in photos).

July 24, 2008 -- Scientists have exposed some of the mystery behind the northern lights. On Thursday, NASA released findings that indicate magnetic explosions about one-third of the way to the moon cause the northern lights, or Aurora Borealis, to burst in spectacular shapes and colors, and dance across the sky.The findings should help scientists better understand the more powerful but less common geomagnetic storms that can knock out satellites, harm astronauts in orbit and disrupt power and communications on Earth, scientists said.A fleet of five small satellites, called Themis, observed the beginning of a geomagnetic storm in February, while ground observatories in Canada and Alaska recorded the brightening of the northern lights. The southern lights -- aurora australis -- also brightened and darted across the sky at the same time.These auroral flare-ups occur every two or three days, on average.A team led by University of California, Los Angeles, scientist Vassilis Angelopoulos confirmed that the observed storm about 80,000 miles from Earth was triggered by a phenomenon known as magnetic reconnection. Every so often, the Earth's magnetic field lines are stretched like rubber bands by solar energy, snap, are thrown back to Earth and reconnect, in effect creating a short circuit.It's this stored-up energy that powers the northern and southern lights or, in other words, causes them to dance, according to Angelopoulos.An opposing theory has these geomagnetic events occurring much closer to Earth, about one-sixth of the way to the moon. More Themis observations are needed to resolve the debate, said David Sibeck, NASA's project scientist. Northern Lights...
IntroductionBlooming flowers, chirping birds and warmer weather are all signs that spring has arrived. But a lesser-known sign of spring are auroras, or the Northern Lights. For reasons not yet fully understood by scientists, the weeks around the vernal equinox are prone to auroras. But NASA is aiming to solve this mystery and others with a new mission to study the Northern Lights, called THEMIS. Nicky Fox, NASA scientist: These are just caused by energy coming into our Earth's magnetic atmosphere causing the whole magnetic field to reconfigure and end up with an explosive release of high-energy electrons and protons into our earth's atmosphere, where they strike the molecules, both oxygen and nitrogen and cause them to glow.Narrator: Besides igniting the northern lights, these substorms can create big problems here on Earth by disrupting power grids, satellites, air travel and even GPS signals.Spring is one of the best times to view the auroras because the substorms that spark them are more frequent in the months around the equinoxes. Plus the longer nights provide a great backdrop for these stunning displays.While auroras have fascinated observers for centuries, little had been known about their origin. But NASA's aiming to resolve this mystery with a new mission to study the northern lights, called THEMIS.The THEMIS mission uses 5 identical satellites, and a network of ground observatories to track and determine what triggers the auroras that occur during substorms.And since its launch just last year, THEMIS has made some important discoveries.David Sibeck, NASA scientist: Even in the first days of our mission we've used these five spacecraft and the dedicated array of ground observatories to track aurora racing westward across canada and alaska and time their motion and understand where they occur.As our knowledge about the northern lights continues to expand, pretty soon auroras may not seem so mysterious after all.

NASA's THEMIS mission successfully launched Saturday, Feb. 17, at 6:01 p.m. EST from Pad 17-B at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Fla.THEMIS stands for the Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms. It is NASA's first five-satellite mission launched aboard a single rocket. The spacecraft separated from the launch vehicle approximately 73 minutes after liftoff. By 8:07 p.m. EST, mission operators at the University of California, Berkeley, commanded and received signals from all five spacecraft, confirming nominal separation status.The mission will help resolve the mystery of what triggers geomagnetic substorms. Substorms are atmospheric events visible in the Northern Hemisphere as a sudden brightening of the Northern Lights, or aurora borealis. The findings from the mission may help protect commercial satellites and humans in space from the adverse effects of particle radiation. Delta-II / THEMIS...
