APOD 2.2

Today's APOD is the first post of November and the last one before daylight saving time ends! It is from October 31st and is a photo that is taken on Earth but looks out of this world!

This photo was taken on a volcanic site in Iceland and shows just how amazing our planet is. It is also kind of appropriate that this spooky photo was chosen to be displayed on the 31st of October as that is Halloween, the spookiest holiday of the year! This place is named Hverir and is located in the Northeast of the country. The green lights in the sky are an auroral display caused by a geomagnetic storm. The gas clouds are caused by the lava just underneath the vents located on the surface. I really like this picture because it shows me just how amazing our world is and how amazing it must look from space with the lights and movement and uncommonly known geological parts of the surface.
