When the sun sets, the Atacama desert in Chile is becoming one of the darkest places on Earth. However, the night of 11 may it was not so. According to the photographer Yuri Beletsky, he couldn't believe what I saw on the screen of his cell when he made the first shot. The sky was illuminated with an incredible Shine, and some part of the milky Way was barely visible due to the intense red glow.
The glow is caused by a complex set of chemical reactions in the upper atmosphere. These reactions start in the daytime when the atmosphere is awash in strong ultraviolet radiation from the Sun passes spaceweather.com. After sunset, the afterglow appears — usually green, but sometimes red. Beletsky, long relieving glow of the atmosphere, noted that its intensity varies, and sometimes it can be more noticeable in the night.
Red light came from hydroxyl-radicals (chemical by-products of reactions day) floating in the layer of the atmosphere at a height of 86-87 km above the surface. Gravity waves propagating up from the lower layers of the atmosphere, creating a red lace with a fluid structure. According to Bielecki, the atmosphere is now quite active and this is a good time to see such glow.
