Researchers solved the mystery of super-fast 'electron rain' that pours down on Earth

Scientists at UCLA have uncovered a new source of super-fast electrons that rain down on the Earth. When interacting with the Earth's atmosphere, these electrons create beautiful phenomena like the Northern Lights. However, scientists say they also pose a significant threat to spacecraft, satellites, and astronauts. The scientists combined data captured by UCLA's ELFIN satellites … The post Researchers solved the mystery of super-fast ‘electron rain’ that pours down on Earth appeared first...
