Polar lights beyond the Arctic Circle that lasted almost the entire night from 15 to 16 March 2018, before the spring equinox the earth fell under the ejection of the solar coronary hole.

The bright solar halo is not complete, the Anthelium is a bright, rather blurry white spot, located on the place of the paraglio circle, in the opposite side to the light. The sky was painfully clear, but then the clouds came running, shooting took about 30 minutes.

Bright solar halo at a temperature of minus 30 Celsius, far beyond the Arctic Circle In the Yamal area, near the city of Sabetta.

A bright object flew in the sky on March 13, 2018, reaching brightness closer to Jupiter.

Two early evening stars in the northern hemisphere this spring, half an hour after sunset. Quick scrolling of the Venus movement after the sun to the bottom, and the mercy that becomes visible in the sky 45 minutes after sunset, if you look above Venus. Recorded on March 11, 2018

Beautiful view of the clouds above the sunset, a mixture of cirrus clouds and chemical trails. Cirrus is a genus of atmospheric cloud generally characterized by thin, wispy strands, giving the type its name from the Latin word cirrus, meaning a ringlet or curling lock of hair. On planet Earth, cirrus generally appears white or light grey in color. It forms when water vapor undergoes deposition at altitudes above 5,500 m (18,000 ft) in temperate regions and above 6,400 m (21,000 ft) in tropical regions.

Mercury will be well placed for observation in the evening sky, shining brightly at mag -0.4. 14 Mar 2018 13:59 Mercury at dichotomy 15 Mar 2018 15:18 Mercury at greatest elongation east 01 Apr 2018 22:47 Mercury at inferior solar conjunction Venus will be well placed for observation in the evening sky, shining brightly at mag -4.4. Venus's orbit lies closer to the Sun than the Earth's, meaning that it always appears close to the Sun and is very difficult to observe most of the time. It is observable only for a few weeks each time it reaches greatest separation from the Sun – moments referred to as greatest elongation. On these occasions, however, Venus is so bright and conspicuous that it becomes the third brightest object in the sky after the Sun and Moon. It is often called the morning or evening star. These apparitions take place alternately in the morning and evening skies, depending whether Venus lies to the east of the Sun or to the west. The moment at which the video plays at normal speed Mercury is at the top and Venus is below and the brightest evening star.

Watching the western sky immediately after sunset this summer, you can see every day, changing its position from day to day bright lights, much brighter than the stars. These two UFOs are Mercury and Venus. This video shows the visibility of Venus in ten degrees above the horizon on March 8, 2018.

Winter landscape of the Russian expanse of the central district (in the west).

Magpie was hooked and hanging vertically on the wall of the house, looking for something in the opening between the bricks, it was a cold winter. Probably the bird lacks calcium, there is a natural material that was used for construction.

The geomagnetic storm created perturbations of the magnetic field, during the shooting of the lunar halo it was possible to capture a beautiful polar glow in the Arctic. Although now the solar minimum without sunspots, the peak of which will come in 2020, the solar wind still bombards the magnetic field of our planet.

In fact, the moon occults (covers over) Aldebaran on 23rd of February. We're in the midst of a series of 49 monthly occultations of Aldebaran that began in 2015 and will conclude this September 3.

February 23, 2018 finds the moon near Aldebaran. The moon and star will be especially close together. In fact, if you live at just the right spot on Earth, you can watch the moon occult – cover over – Aldebaran for a portion of the night on February 23, 2018. The star will disappear behind the dark side of the moon and reappear on its illuminated side.

On Thursday, Feb. 22, 2018, a solar wind stream grazed Earth's magnetic field. The off-center impact of the solar wind caused something unusual to happen. Earth's polar magnetic field rang like a bell. Rob Stammes recorded the phenomenon from his magnetic observatory in Lofoton, Norway: "On Feb. 22nd, the magnetic field around our observatory (as measured by ground currents) was swinging back an forth with a 100 second period," says Stammes. "This very stable oscillation went on for more than an hour." Researchers call these pure ultra-low frequency oscillations "pulsations continuous" (Pc).

The flow of high-speed solar wind over the past weekend fell into the Earth's magnetic field (Feb 16/17), causing intermittent auroras around the Arctic circle. The gaseous material is flowing from a wide hole in the sun's atmosphere. The face of the sun is blank (most part of time). The absence of sunspots heralds the approach of Solar Minimum. Sunspot numbers rise and fall with an ~11-year period, slowly oscillating between Solar Max and Solar Min. In 2018, the pendulum is swinging toward a deep minimum expected to reach nadir during the next 2 years. NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory is monitoring the sunspot's magnetic canopy. A sunspot's magnetic canopy is where solar flares happen. Magnetic lines of force criss, cross, and explode in a process known as "magnetic reconnection." Now the active zone has left the face of the Sun.

This is a long version of the winter solar column, the video is accelerated many times, the original duration of the video is almost 20 minutes. Low clouds and ice in the air beautifully shimmer with sunlight. A light pillar is an atmospheric optical phenomenon in the form of a vertical band of light which appears to extend above and/or below a light source. The effect is created by the reflection of light from numerous tiny ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere or clouds. The light can come from the Sun (usually when it is near or even below the horizon) in which case the phenomenon is called a sun pillar or solar pillar.

A bright meteor illuminated the sky above the center west of the American continent. Recorded on video about 12:40 on universal time.

Sunset accompanied by snowfall, February 2, 2018 in Tyumen, Russia. The time-lapse consists of one frame every second, the camera SJCAM 4000

Sunset in the city of Tyumen, Russia 1 February 2018. After sunset just a moment, there was a solar vertical column of light, it looked beautiful.

About a thousand shots of short exposure of the full moon, immediately after the lunar eclipse. filmed in Tyumen, Russia.

Shooting of the moon and the shadow of the earth January 31, 2018 A series of images of about 1000 images, glued together in a video file. ISO 100 f5.6 shutter 1 / 320-500 sec Frozen, and discharged a lot of batteries in the cold, all that was able to shoot quality. Tyumen, Russia January 31, 2018 temperature -13 Celsius.

Black inversion trail from an airplane Filmed at sunset on January 25, 2018 over the city of Tyumen, Tyumen region, Russia. The vapor turned into a dark black inversion trail, when the plane hit the shadow of the earth, when the Sun was already hidden behind the horizon.

Shooting one frame per second, the camera - Panasonic DMZ20 Illuminated 56 percent, there are 6 days from January 25, 2018 to a total lunar eclipse.
