Good catch, @dominickmatthew ⚡️What do you think, @Astro_Andreas and @ASIM_Payload? 😉

Amazing edge-view of a sprite from @Space_Station by astronaut Matthew Dominick. This excerpt shows a sprite captured at the horizon edge during a nighttime pass over southeast Asia. This sprite reaches approximately 60 kilometer altitudes, which is in the accepted range of 35-90 kilometers for sprites (the visible edge-on atmosphere is about 120 kilometers). There is a blue-to-red emission transition at about 20 kilometers. The very base of the blue is about 5-8 kilometers. Expedition 71, iss071e319414, Nikon Z9, 50mm f1.2, 1/3th sec, ISO 12800, 7-1-2024.

If there are any red sprite experts out there I would enjoy tips on how to capture more of these. Clearly, look for lightning storms, but I’m thinking the stronger the storm the better and over water might help see them better.

Super lucky a few weeks ago when shooting a timelapse of a lightning storm off the coast of South Africa. One of the frames in the timelapse had a red sprite. A rare event. My knowledge is pretty much just from Wikipedia but I want to know more. 50mm lens, f1.2, 1/5s, ISO 3200

I am so lucky to have captured such a picture of Gigantic Jets Lightning over Himalayan Mountains. And it has now been published at #APOD of June 18. I took them on the early morning of June 10, 2024.

Thunderstorm observations from @Space_Station provide better data than satellites at higher orbits. Monitoring thunderstorms helps scientists evaluate their role in atmospheric dynamics and climate change. doi.org/10.1038/s41526…

On April 15, 2024, the @ASIM_Payload was relocated to its original position on the Columbus module on board of the @Space_Station. 📸 We've got some exclusive post-relocation pics for you! 🌟

⚡️ Back to its roots. The 'space storm hunter' ASIM moved to its original, preferred position on @esa's Columbus module today. 👀 The relocation will give the @ASIM_Payload a wider field of view to monitor high energy events in Earth’s upper atmosphere. Its science could improve our knowledge of dust storms, pollutants, forest fires and volcanoes. 🌋 🦾 The @csa_asc robotic arm was in charge of the move, under the guidance of the Belgian User Support and Operations Centre🇧🇪 @Busoc_official

It is moving day. @ASIM_Payload is going back to it's original location on the @Space_Station's Columbus module. January 2022, @ASIM_Payload was temporarily moved out the way from the SDX to SDN location because of a new expirement, which has now completed.

Researchers monitor thunderstorms and its impacts on Earth’s atmosphere and climate. The Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor could improve our knowledge of dust storms, pollutants, forest fires, and volcanoes. Discover more @Space_Station science: go.nasa.gov/3OPtMH6

Lightning goes both ways - down to strike the Earth and up towards space. Amazing photo of a red sprite above a storm, by @Astro_Andreas. Details, including gif: tinyurl.com/ycynckzr @esa
