If you miss Aurora Borealis in May earlier this year, you are lucky: the sun is about to provide another opportunity to see Aurora.
On August 30, the sun produced the M2.7 Strait, which sent a stream of charged molecules to the ground. These particles will reach the Earth that start on the first of September, and can lead to the emergence of Ura Purice until the second of September, when the storm passes the planet.
Who will be able to see Ura this week?
There is a good opportunity for Aurora Borealis to be visible in the far south like states such as Pennsylvania and Oregon, and anyone north of those states will definitely see something, the weather cooperates.
Of course, there is always a degree of uncertainty about the accurate strength of these events, so anyone who lives at 40 degrees north or more should take a look at the sky if he is able to do so – you may get a pleasant surprise!
Why is Ura happens?
Auroras occurs when the sun’s active molecules are charged towards the Earth’s columns by the planet’s magnetic field, where it collides with gases in the upper atmosphere. With the interaction of gas and charged particles, the electrons become temporarily eager to atoms before the firing of the photon, creating the light we see. In many ways, it is similar to how the Florecent light works.
Will the coronary mass expel a dangerous aroma?
Coronary mass, or Cmes, can sometimes damage electronics in space or even on the surface of the planet, depending on the intensity, but CME from August 30 does not pose a major threat.
The August 30 CME was moderate, and Noaa expects it is strong enough to create a G3 magnetic storm at its peak. There is a small opportunity that can reach G4. This means that Ura will be more visible from the pillars of the earth than usual. In addition, G3 storms can cause temporary disturbances of some wireless communication systems, causing fluctuations in the energy network, and may interfere with satellite communications.
However, all these problems will be simple and temporary.
Aurora can be somewhat hidden, especially if you are competing with a lot of light pollution. If you are going to see it, remember to look at the north; You will have a better opportunity to capture it. At least, try to block the main lights in your direct area and don’t look at your phone to allow you to see you. If you can, travel in a darker place, as it will be easier to see.
If you want to photograph it, it is possible that your medium smartphone is at the task level these days. Even the low photography mode of low -lighting (called a night shot or night mode) is enough. If you try to place astronomical imaging, you will likely lose many tape similar details due to the length of exposure.
