Severe Solar Storm Creates Stunning Auroras During Meteor Shower
Briefly

Geomagnetic storms caused by coronal mass ejections can disrupt communications and power systems, but they usually create stunning auroras that light up the night sky.
The recent G4 level geomagnetic storm resulted in stunning auroras visible across the globe, coinciding perfectly with the peak of the Perseid meteor shower.
Solar material expelled from the Sun during coronal mass ejections can wreak havoc on Earth's magnetic field, resulting in serious disruptions or beautiful light displays.
This year, a rare cosmic alignment brought together a solar outburst and the Perseid meteor shower, creating an extraordinary natural light spectacle for observers.
