A coronal mass ejection ( CME ) struck Earth last night .
The persistent solar wind eventually sparked an aurora substorm and created dazzling northern lights displays down to mid-latitudes.
CMEs are expulsions of plasma and magnetic fields from the sun that carry electrically charged atoms known as ions.
STEVE — Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement — is an aurora-like glow that often accompanies the northern lights.
Benjamin Jurkovich captured STEVE above Lake Stevens , Washington , U.S. Meanwhile, aurora chaser Justin Anderson snapped an image of vibrant auroras dancing overhead in Manitoba , Canada .
