About this deal

The only thing they won’t measure is the chorus wave itself, though the team is hoping for a chance flyby of a satellite that could potentially provide those observations. Like all aurora, pulsating aurora are set alight by electrons (and occasionally protons) from near-Earth space. These electrons plunge into our atmosphere and collide with atoms and molecules, causing them to glow in their distinctive colors – red and green by oxygen, blue by nitrogen – as they release their excess energy. It’s sort of hypnotic, pulsating every few seconds,” said Dr. Alexa Halford, space scientist at NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, and principal investigator for the mission. “The blobs and colors remind me of a lava lamp, where you can just sit and stare at it for hours.” Pulsating aurora and microbursts seem to happen at similar times, even though they’re different energy ranges,” Halford said. “So, the big question is, are they the same events? Are they being driven by the same processes in the magnetosphere?” Have you seen pulsating aurora? You can contribute to auroral science by sharing your photos.

With what you might call the retro revival, lava lamps are now being made by a number of companies around the world. Thumbs Up’s version is distinguished by its elegant profile and attractive colour scheme. Made almost entirely from painted metal and glass, it is a high-quality product. A few minutes of self-assembly are required, fitting the base fins requiring a certain amount of dexterity, and the gratification is not instant – the wax does take a time to warm up to operating temperature – but the result is very pleasing. Image(s) provided by: Chorus waves occur at exactly the right frequency to ‘resonate’ with the electrons that create pulsating aurora, similar to how you pump your feet at justthe right time to get a swing to go higher and higher,” said Dr. Allison Jaynes, space physicist at the University of Iowa in Iowa City and co-investigator for the mission. Eventually, some of these electrons “jump off” the swing – and shoot into our atmosphere. But chorus waves are not sound waves – instead, they move through plasma, the electrified gas that makes up over 99% of the observable matter in space. They ripple through the particles trapped within Earth’s magnetic environment, shaking some loose to fall into our atmosphere.I love to just watch it. It's very meditative. Every time you turn it on, the flow pattern is unique. So it's so pleasant and wonderful to watch, and then play with. Which makes it better than a lava lamp, because they can't be played with. It doesn't take long to heat up. It's smaller than my regular lava lamp, but I am actually glad because I have it between 2 of my monitors so it can catch my eye, and still not be too much in the way. A type of plasma wave known as chorus as heard by theEMFISISinstrument aboard NASA’s Van Allen Probes as it passed around Earth. We have all but one piece of the puzzle that we’re hoping to catch simultaneously…but any of it is going to provide us new information and hopefully help us test that theory that it’s the chorus waves behind it all,” Halford said. Chorus waves can launch both low and high-energy electrons, which may explain some puzzling coincidences. Pulsating aurora are caused by fairly low-energy electrons, but they’re often observed alongside flashes of X-ray light known as microbursts, which come from higher-energy electrons.

The Asto became an icon of the sixties and made Craven-Walker a wealthy man. He continued to fly as a private pilot and took to travelling in his own helicopter. The LAMP mission is an international collaboration with contributions from NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, Dartmouth College, University of New Hampshire, and University of Iowa, and Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, Tohoku University, Nagoya University, and Kyutech in Japan. The aurora borealis, or northern lights, is a familiar treat to those who call northern latitudes home. Auroras come in different shapes and colors, waving their ribbons of vibrant green, red and purple across the sky. But one variety of aurora displays a peculiar behavior: it pulsates.Make sure to follow the initial directions which are clear and easy to follow. It needs to be sort of calibrated when you first use it. Easy peasy.
