Aurorae (31 photos and 4 videos)
"The sky was ablaze. Endless transparent veil covering the whole sky. Some shake the invisible force it. All of it was burning delicate violet light. In some places, we are showing the bright flash and then paled as if for a moment and scattered clouds were born, woven from a single light. Through the veil of bright starlight "describes aurora known polar explorer GA Ushakov.
The Indians, who live in northern Canada and Alaska Eskimos have a beautiful legend: the souls of the dead depart to the heavenly palace, on which burns the North Star. For real people, this palace is invisible, but its inhabitants are sometimes open the window, the light of which falls on the cloud, and his ridyat people - it's auroras. But when the gods open the top of the window in his palace, which means that they call to his soul still living people, and people who heard the call, goes to meet him in his final journey to the North Star.
When, in the last two centuries it has begun development of the polar regions, explorers and polar explorers with mystical horror convinced of the reality of Native American legends: often occurring cases when one of the members of the expedition suddenly found himself under the influence of a certain strength and rushed on ice due north - to North Star. This is especially true with patients and weakened people, but when people tried to detain them on this disastrous path, they fell into madness and escaped with superhuman strength.
With the development of Russian sailors Spitsbergen in 1792 on fishing schooner merchant Rybin was an emergency. The son of a merchant, Alexei, sick with scurvy during the voyage, and lying in the cabin, after the appearance of a bright pulsating aurora came out on the deck, threw overboard and swam to the north. To save him failed.

In 1898, the ship "Belgica" under the command of Gerlache de Goma-ri left for the winter off the coast of Antarctica. The polar night sky above lit aurora. Suddenly, one of the members of the expedition, the young Norwegian Tollefsen, jumped overboard and escaped across the ice towards the pole. Behind him wanted to follow another man, he tried to tie, but he managed to escape and almost killed with an ax navigator.
Sometimes, the researchers observed how strange state covering nearly the entire population of entire villages, people began to repeat the movement synchronously with each other, and both are in the homes and on the street; as if on command sang in different languages, even those they do not know. Sometimes they form a sort of round dance and non-stop until exhaustion go in a circle. Bring them out of this state is almost impossible.

Many mention that this strange psychosis begins with the appearance of some forms of auroras, especially bright and pulsating, and ends with their extinction.
It was reported about more terrible when almost the entire population of Eskimo or Indian settlement suddenly leave their homes, young children, even burning hearths and took like someone's calling in the white silence. It is also argued that people covered meryachkoy, become like zombies - perform any commands, and if in this state the person to stab, the knife does not hurt him.

In the early 20-ies of the mysterious phenomenon became interested Academician Bekhterev, especially after he received a message from a former exile Grigorieva, a doctor by profession, before the revolution, lived near Lovozero on the Kola Peninsula. Grigoryev told about their observations of the spontaneous emergence meryachki among the local population, found that these outbreaks occur simultaneously in the neighboring villages, and it is clearly linked with the appearance of auroras.
Studies have shown that using powerful shortwave transmitters and ionospheric radars, located in the polar regions, it is possible not only to create an artificial aurora, but the modulated signal in a certain way, to call on the Earth's surface low-frequency bioactive electromagnetic fields possessing psychotronic influence on the person. Moreover, in a predetermined area. These studies were immediately classified as secret, and for the most part remain so until now.

In ancient Norse mythology is often referred to Bifrost Bridge (Bifrost) - burning shivering arch that crosses the sky on which the gods could descend from heaven to earth. Other Norwegian Folk legends say that the aurora - a heavenly dance of the souls of dead virgins.
6.
Some North American Indian tribes believed that the aurora is the light of lanterns, which are the spirits of seeking souls of the dead hunters.
Like the Eskimos from Barrow to go, Fox Indians in Wisconsin (Wisconsin) feared aurora, seeing in it the ghosts of their dead enemies.
And the Australian Aborigines saw him dance across the sky gods.

According to Slavic mythology flashes of auroral sky decorated with Santa Claus.

In the Middle Ages it was considered harbingers night flashes of war and disease (as, indeed, comets, eclipses, and many other phenomena).
And in a Danish legend tells of a swan flock that flew too far north and stuck in the ice. When the swans flap, wings, trying to take off, flashing lights in the sky.
9.
In the recent past misconceptions about the cause of the aurora it was still common among the general public. For example, many people in the Midwest of America believed that the aurora is a reflection of sunlight on the polar ice. Other romantic explanation was that the light of the aurora is the result of collisions of icebergs in the polar seas.

The scientific explanation for this phenomenon first gave Mikhail Lomonosov. After countless experiments, he suggested the electrical nature of this phenomenon. Scientists continue to study this phenomenon on the basis of experiments confirmed the correctness of his hypothesis.

The most spectacular auroras appear with cycles of 11 years and 22 years old, it depends on solar activity. Due to the shooting from the satellite confirmed the old theory that the aurora in the northern and southern hemispheres are almost mirror images of each other - it is a ring with a diameter of about 4 thousand kilometers around each pole. In the Middle Ages, when the north magnetic pole was located to the east, the aurora was often seen in Scandinavia, northern Russia and northern China. The then chroniclers attributed this to the fact that this giant battle in the sky, or fly from heaven to earth sparkling colored lights spear. Now the Northern Lights are often seen in Scotland, especially in April; about four times a year, and it appears to the north of Florida, but it is most clearly seen in the vicinity of the magnetic poles, for example, in northern Canada and in the Antarctic Ross Hollow. One of the most convenient locations - Northern Scandinavia; nice to watch the aurora on the island of Spitsbergen, north of Norway. A southern aurora is best seen on the Antarctic continent. Watching auroras and space, where, among other things, there is the distorting effect of the lower dense layers of the atmosphere. Observations from manned spacecraft and orbital stations yielded a wealth of material about the spatial distribution of auroras and their variations in time and about the many features of this phenomenon. Moreover, the spacecraft allowed to take measurements inside the aurora. This way you can watch the lights and on the sunlit side of Earth. By the way, have their own auroras on Jupiter.

Whatever gave no explanation for this phenomenon scientists of different times, few people can stand and admire the stunning natural phenomenon. Huge arches and bands of shimmering colored lights covering the sky. Rippling curtains of purple-white to orange-red appear at a height of one hundred kilometers, Arc de Triomphe, and - from 65 to 100 kilometers.
13.
Each aurora begins with a pre-induced arc! When you notice the arc, so the wait is not long - 10 minutes to 2 hours. One way or another, usually before starting the aurora arc gradually rises (slow or fast), and often there are single Rays. When this occurs, it is possible that until the main flash has not long to shine ...

Although found auroras can be even on the Indian subcontinent, in the northern hemisphere, they are most often seen in the area delineated by a circle, passing through Alaska, Big Bear Lake, Hudson Bay, the southern part of Greenland and Iceland, northern Norway and Siberia.
