Help wanted! Using photos of #aurora taken in Göttingen and Braunschweig in May 2024, scientists from @tubraunschweig , #mpsgoettingen and #FraunhoferIST have found new clues on the origin of red auroras. Published today in Annales Geophysicae: https://angeo.copernicus.org/articles/44/1201/2026/
Members of the public are invited to share their future aurora photos with the researchers. More infos here: https://www.mps.mpg.de/new-clues-on-the-origin-of-red-auroras
