Anddddd That’s How The Nucleus Was Formed!

You’re lying - those are way cooler than dumb fireworks!

I really don’t like fireworks. They’re environmentally damaging, loud, and they hide the stars!

So yeah, July 4th wasn’t too happy for me.

A camera on the Vosges mountains in France captured these surprising “fireworks” above the horizon. Generated over intense thunderstorms, these brief and mysterious flashes have come to be known as red sprites. The transient luminous events are caused by electrical breakdown at altitudes of 50 to 100 kilometers. That puts them in the mesophere, the coldest layer of planet Earth's atmosphere. The glow beneath the sprites is from lightening under the clouds.

On the right, the video frames have captured another summertime apparition from the mesophere. The silvery veins of light are polar mesospheric clouds. Also known as noctilucent or night shining clouds, the icy clouds still reflect the sunlight when the Sun is below the horizon.

I was researching nebulae for my next article and I wanted to share some images for you guys :)

Nebula are some of the most beautiful things in space. We mostly focused on galaxies and the stars within them, but we forget that in-between galaxies exists the interstellar medium. This is where the nebulae live.

Hope you enjoyed!

I’ve never gotten to see a full solar eclipse, just a partial one that happened a few years ago. 

Maybe I’ll have better luck in the future?

Upvote me so that I can post on r/science too.

Max Planck, you absolute boss

Btw there’s always something left in physics to discover. Going from nothing left to discover to quantum theory is a huge leap though, because quantum has PLENTY to figure out.

Let’s keep asking questions…

I mean, the song really isn’t accurate.

Also that’s a bit unfair. I’m pretty super that’s a Red Super Giant. Not all stars are that huge xD (even though I’d wouldn’t describe any star as “little”)
