Astronauts onboard the International Space Station (ISS) have seen a lot of auroras in recent months. Usually the lights are green; sometimes they're red. Other colors are rare. So when ISS science officer Don Pettit looked out the window on March 29th and saw these striking blue-shaded auroras over Scandinavia, he had to take a picture.
