HAVE YOU SEEN THE AURORAS ON SATURN? -Friendz10

Just like on Earth, the planet Saturn also has auroras, as seen in this Hubble Space Telescope image.

HAVE YOU SEEN THE AURORAS ON SATURN? -Friendz10

Hubble's unique ultraviolet image of Saturn's auroras helped to show that these storms are caused mainly by the pressure of the solar wind, a stream of charged particles from the Sun. The bright auroral display in this image, taken in January 2004, corresponds to the arrival of a large disturbance in the solar wind.

While Earth's auroras usually last for minutes or hours, Saturn's can last for days!
