The Aurora Named STEVE

The video discusses a unique auroral phenomenon named Steve, characterized by a narrow purple arc and green features. Initially a mystery, Steve was observed by scientists and enthusiasts, leading to new insights into auroral activities. Satellite data from ESA's Swarm revealed strong particle flows in the ionosphere associated with Steve. This discovery is significant as it allows more people to observe and understand auroras, especially in southern regions, enhancing our knowledge of sub-auroral regions.
