Jakarta, Selular.ID – A post by a photographer who managed to capture the aurora-like light in the Yogyakarta sky on September 28 was circulating on Instagram. This photo was captured in the Tumpeng Menoreh area, which is one of the highland areas in the Special Region of Yogyakarta Province.
The post immediately stirred netizens on the Instagram social network because this natural phenomenon usually does not occur in Indonesia because it is very far from the earth’s magnetic pole.
Aurora is a natural phenomenon that usually occurs in the Polar region. This natural phenomenon produces glowing and dancing beams of light in the night sky in the ionosphere layer as a result of the interaction between the magnetic field and charged particles emitted by the Sun.
In general, auroras occur in the area around the North Pole and South Pole. Aurora in the sky at the south pole is called Aurora Australis, while the aurora in the sky at the north pole of the earth is called Aurora Borealis.
While the aurora phenomenon in the south known as Aurora Australis has similar properties. But sometimes aurora appears on mountain tops in tropical climates.
The light yellowish green color, which is the most common and frequent color, is produced by oxygen molecules located about 97 km (60 miles) from Earth. While other colors that rarely appear, such as red are produced by oxygen molecules from an altitude of 322 km (200 miles). While nitrogen produces a blue or red to purple-purple color.
