Mysterious Green Flashes Illuminate Venus in Rare Celestial Display, Captivating Early Risers in Stockholm – a Stunning Planetary Conjunction.
Early morning in Stockholm, people saw an amazing sight – Venus and the Moon rising together. Peter Rosen, an early riser, got an extra surprise – a rare green flash from Venus. This happens when Earth’s air acts like a prism, splitting light into colors.
Venus showed a green flash because of the cold air in southern Sweden. Normally seen during sunsets, green flashes can also happen with the moon and planets. Rosen’s pictures of Venus’s green flash are some of the best. People, whether they’re casual sky watchers or scientists, find it fascinating. This green glow from Venus is a special sign of the wonders in our solar system.
