Talk about a picture-perfect moment! 📸 NASA's Perseverance Mars Rover has captured the first visible-light aurora from the surface of Mars! Coordinating with MAVEN, the science team was able to observe green aurora caused by a solar storm in March 2024. Learn more: science.nasa.gov/solar-system/p…

In March 2024, solar storms led to stunning auroras across the solar system, including at Mars, where the NASA's Perseverance Mars Rover rover made history by detecting them for the first time from the surface of another planet. go.nasa.gov/3GSfXq4
