What's creating these long glowing streaks in the sky? No one is sure! They’re known as Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancements (STEVEs). Strong, luminous light-purple sky ribbons that may resemble regular auroras, but recent research reveals significant differences. A STEVE's great length and unusual colors, when measured precisely, indicate that it may be related to a subauroral ion drift (SAID), a supersonic river of hot atmospheric ions thought previously to be invisible. The featured wide-angle composite image shows a STEVE in a dark sky above Childs Lake, Manitoba, Canada, crossing in front of the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy.

Constellation- and void-aligned combo flag for a Discord request.
Consider throwing me a few dollars on Ko-Fi so I can keep making awesome content like this!

I'm void and constellation aligned from this! I have hints of nebula but not enough to say I'm aligned with it
New Space-Themed Xenic Alignments!
Hello! I’ve invented a system of space-themed xenic alignments that I’m calling the Cosmoic Alignments. I wanted to keep them completely independent of male, female, masc, and fem as well as give them a sort of abstract feel. I’ll list the alignments below, and then provide their flags in a Read More.
I want to also note that these can be used by any human or nonhuman, whether they have no gender or many genders. They also don’t have to be xenogender in order to identify with these.
Void-aligned - A formless, dark, and frigid alignment. May be unaligned or reject alignment altogether. Associated with black holes and deep space.
Constellation-aligned - A cold, multifaceted alignment that is complex and solid. May feel as though the individual parts of the alignment make up one larger alignment identity. Associated with starlight and astrology.
Nebula-aligned - A fluid, colorful, and bright alignment that floats slowly through the cold void of space. May often feel cloudy or intangible. Associated with the alignment of supernova and with stars.
Aurora-aligned - A fluctuating, colorful, and bright alignment that swirls through the temperate atmosphere. Associated with solar winds, magnetic fields, and planet Earth.
Stellar-aligned - A large, hot, and bright alignment with a fixed course through space. May be loud or boisterous. Associated with light and solar eclipses.
Supernova-aligned - A huge and red-hot alignment that seems to expand rapidly in all directions. May feel like it’s burning up other alignments around it. Associated with stars.
Planet-aligned - A stable, solid, and warm alignment thriving with liveliness. May align with both sunlight or darkness. Associated with weather patterns and gravitational forces.
Lunar-aligned - A quiet, slow, and cold alignment with a fixed course through space. May align with softness or grace. Associated with water and lunar eclipses.
Asteroid-aligned - An erratic and unpredictable alignment that is cold. May feel like it’s far away from other alignments.
Singularity-aligned - A small and enigmatic red-hot alignment that has the potential to be something bigger. May indicate questioning alignment rather than being sure.
Quantum-aligned - A paradoxical alignment that is both known and unknown, present and absent. May be complex or simple, and may overlap with many other alignments or none at all.
Language to use: “I am a cosmoic demiboy. My alignment is lunar. I am a lunar-aligned demiboy.”
** All flags are below the cut. They’re in order from top to bottom. **
