Just. Wow. As we went over Mexico and the U.S. this morning, I caught this sprite.
Sprites are TLEs or Transient Luminous Events, that happen above the clouds and are triggered by intense electrical activity in the thunderstorms below. We have a great view above the clouds, so scientists can use these types of pictures to better understand the formation, characteristics, and relationship of TLEs to thunderstorms.
FWA is over but the memories made will last a lifetime. That was such an incredible weekend and made possible by all my friends and everyone I ran into. I cannot say enough how much fun that was and look forward to doing it all over again! ♥
