In Pics: Spooky! NASA celebrates Halloween by sharing creepy images of Sun and more
Going with the Halloween theme, NASA surprised us with some really spooky images of various celestial objects! So, be prepared to be creeped out by the Sun, lightning, astronauts and more. Check out these creepy images shared by NASA.
Have you ever seen the Sun smiling? No, we’re not cracking some lame joke. NASA recently tweeted an image where the Sun could be seen smiling! NASA tweeted, “Today, NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory caught the Sun "smiling." Seen in ultraviolet light, these dark patches on the Sun are known as coronal holes and are regions where fast solar wind gushes out into space.” (NASA)

A crimson light across the sky rececntly spooked us so much that it could give Stranger Things a run for its money. NASA recently tweeted, “A flash of lightning. Then above the storm, a crimson figure blinks in & out. If you’ve ever seen one, you’re a lucky witness of a sprite!” (NASA/Thanasis Papathanasiou)

Even astronauts dress up on Halloween! NASA recently shared an image showing four astronauts donning costumes aboard the International Space Station. NASA tweeted, “It’s time to suit up, astronauts! Are you, your friends, or kiddos wearing a space costume this Halloween? Share it with us using #NASACostume so we can see!” (NASA)

We all knew lightning could scare us but not this way! NASA recently shared an image of thunderstorms with their tendrils across the sky. The space agency tweeted, “They flash above thunderstorms, their spiny tendrils stretching tens of miles across. A NASA scientist and night-sky fanatic chase these elusive lights across Oklahoma.” (NASA/Paul Smith)

NASA Astronomy Image of the day – Today's image of the day is a spiral galaxy, which is the third largest in our local group of galaxies. NASA explained below the image, “The small, northern constellation Triangulum harbors this magnificent face-on spiral galaxy, M33. Its popular names include the Pinwheel Galaxy or just the Triangulum Galaxy. M33 is over 50,000 light-years in diameter, third largest in the Local Group of galaxies after the Andromeda Galaxy (M31), and our own Milky Way.” (NASA/Robert Gendler)
