A photographer takes pictures of aurora borealis, or northern lights, produced by a solar geomagnetic storm, seen from Shenandoah National Park in Rileyville, Virginia, on October 10, 2024. A coronal mass ejection from the Sun struck Earth this morning at 11:17 am (1517 GMT), disrupting the Earth's magnetic field and quickly achieving G4 (severe) geomagnetic storm conditions at 12:57 pm, the US Space Weather Prediction Center said. The event is expected to produce auroras potentially as far south as northern California or Alabama. (Photo by Saul Loeb/AFP Photo)
