IIA’s observatory captures red-hued Aurora from Hanle, Merak
Wednesday, 8 November 2023
The Indian Astronomical Observatory (IAO) in Ladakh captured stunning images of a rare red-colored aurora on November 5. The aurora, known as a Stable Auroral Arc (SAR), displayed vivid shades of red instead of the more common green and blue curtains of light. The phenomenon was visible from multiple locations around the world and was linked to a Coronal Mass Ejection (CME) that occurred on the Sun two days prior.
