Auroras, like the ones seen here at Langley Research Center last night, are caused by solar storms that send gas particles through space. 🌩️ When those particles interact with our atmosphere, we see an Aurora Borealis. Learn more:

What if we could make it easier to explore space? @NASA 's solar sail uses the pressure of sunlight for propulsion, the same way a sailboat uses wind. Without the need for conventional rocket propellant, future deep space missions could have a much lower cost. Learn more:
