#Mars Got Cooked by a Recent #SolarStorm
Days after light shows filled Earth’s skies with wonder, the red planet was hit by another powerful outburst of the #sun

1. Auroras, rendered in purple to represent ultraviolet light, on Mars’s nightside were detected by an instrument aboard NASA’s MAVEN orbiter between May 14 and 20. The brighter the purple, the more auroras that were present.
