Jupiter's auroras

Surely enough, our planet is not the only one that displays auroras. It would be rather impossible to photograph an aurora in Jupiter from the planet's surface - the way most auroras are photographed here on Earth - but the Hubble telescope has been able to capture this display of luminescent gases, and the view is equally amazing.

Vanishing Aurora and planets
While not the most intense display of northern lights, this one was unique in that it marked the end of the aurora viewing season in Alaska, when the nights are no longer dark enough to see the aurora due to the lengthening days. It's also unique in that five planets are visible: Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus

Aurora and volcano
Most photographers would be happy photographing either the spectacular auroras or the the volcanic eruption in Mt. Hekla. Photographer Sigurdur H. Stefnisson got both.

Aurora at the lake
Beautiful combination of sunlight, lake reflection and a blue aurora. Each light source brings a different color to this amazing photo.
Update: Someone has reported this to be a computer generated image.

Cool picture from outer space showing some aurora activity.
CORRECTION: This is actually an image of the Sun. And as far as we all know, there are no auroras in the Sun :-)
