22 APR John gray of North Della on the Scottish island of Lewis out of the house to watch the meteor shower Lerida. However, he was fortunate enough to see another phenomenon.

Gray was able to photograph from the afterglow of the coronal mass ejection (CME) — he was watching it after midnight for half an hour.

Two days before the coronal mass ejection reached the magnetosphere of our planet, triggering the first geomagnetic storm in 2020. The storm abated, but the lights still could be seen as the Earth moved through the trace of the emission.

A coronal mass ejection mass called the ejection of matter from the solar corona. If such an ejection is directed towards Earth, it reaches it within 1-3 days. Some emissions affect the magnetosphere, causing the phenomenon of space weather.
