This striking aurora image was taken during a geomagnetic storm that was most likely caused by a coronal mass ejection from the sun on May 24, 2010. The space station was located over the Southern Indian Ocean.

A spectacular display of Earth's southern auroras was captured on camera by astronauts on the International Space Station during a recent solar storm.
