My all sky cameras recorded two different, very unusual forms of auroras. First, a rare form of proton auroras appeared. These could be also called EMIC auroras. Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves are plasma waves that originate near Earth’s magnetic equator in space. They form when fast-moving, hot ions circling the planet cross into regions of cold, dense plasma surrounding Earth.

The secondary star, which has roughly half the mass of the primary, is believed to be overflowing its Roche lobe and transferring material onto the primary. Some of this in-falling gas is ejected in the form of jets that emerge perpendicular to the system’s accretion disk. These jets are ionized by the radiation from the primary star, but only very faintly in H-alpha...]]></description><link>https://www.evenfall.space/post/the-red-river</link><guid isPermaLink="false">692a0409d73b496b537ea8af</guid><category><![CDATA[Deep sky]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 28 Nov 2025 20:28:05 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/1712ab_d4df0250432044799ff5a23be27d4f25~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Ville Puoskari</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Relics of Cygnus]]></title><description><![CDATA[Hidden away in the rich star-fields of Cygnus lies one of the galaxy’s oldest known planetary nebulae, the Methuselah Nebula, or MWP 1. This very faint, ghostly shell of gas is all that remains of a star nearing the end of its long cosmic life. MWP 1 was first identified in 1992 by German astronomers C. Motch, K. Werner, and M. W. Pakull, whose initials give the nebula its name. Catalogued as RX J2117.1+3412, the central star of the nebula was discovered in a survey with the ROSAT satellite...]]></description><link>https://www.evenfall.space/post/relics-of-cygnus</link><guid isPermaLink="false">68f4bf52a6f2484f3c98aead</guid><pubDate>Sun, 19 Oct 2025 10:39:12 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/1712ab_e434bb23c64147349eb2ef6a62077d43~mv2.jpg/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>Ville Puoskari</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rocket launch spotted]]></title><description><![CDATA[The Long March 8 rocket was captured on the observatory’s all-sky camera.
