Description

A rare case of greenish rippled airglow captured.  SQM was > 21,15 captured during an observation weekend in Grandpre, France with VVS Capella. 

We got the most out of some brief clearings in the clouds. Beautifull winter Milky Way.

It is said that this ripple effect is caused by garvity waves in the airmass related to distant thunderstorms?
