Subj : Space Weather To : All From : Roger Nelson Date : Thu Jun 26 2014 07:09:29 Space Weather News for June 25, 2014 http://spaceweather.com SPRITES OVER THE USA: This week, backyard photographers have been observing gigantic red sprites flickering over the USA. These electrical discharges, which occur high above thunderclouds, resemble enormous jellyfish and their glow can often be seen hundreds of miles away. A specimen highlighted on today's edition of Space Weather would dwarf Mt. Everest. For more information and observing tips visit http://spaceweather.com.
