The sound of Aurora Borealis-- Real time video!

If you ever wanted to hear what the Aurora Borealis sounds like, here you go.
It's the sound of our minds being blown, of course.
This video is grainy and blurred because it was taken on a high ISO setting with a slow shutter speed. I processed the video to smooth out the frames and make it less jumpy, but tit's filmed in real time.

If you had been sleeping during this event, you might have appreciated our noise. The people in this community make noise during aurora by request so that we know when to wake up and go outside.

There's no actual sound to the aurora that is audible to humans; that's an urban myth.

@@LychkovIA I love Bob Ross, but I would follow him for his art, not science ;-) The aurora make crackling noise in certain amplified radio signals, but not in the air. Some people claim hearing sounds during aurora but it has never been recorded or substantiated. It's likely in their imagination during such an emotional event. If there is ever an audible sound, it is exceedingly rare since millions of people with millions of recording devices have never caught it. On extremely rare occasions, meteors make sounds, too, but it's a sonic boom well afterwards that breaks windows, not the "swoosh" sound people think they ought to hear.

[@nugsboodlepoo]

how come the movement of your friends looks so strange? it looks like theyre morphing @0:26

[@telejeff]

it has to do with the slower frame rate of the camera to capture the light and the processing to smooth out the motion. When there is a lot of motion, the computer doesn't know how to smooth it out correctly--it really is performing a type of morph interpolation between frames. It is going from 4 frames per second to 30.

[@Buskieboy]

[@archathaz]

how is the morphing effect in the footage created? such a beautiful video !

[@telejeff]

I took the video in real time but with a 1/4 second exposure, which left the video a little jumpy, mostly in fast moving things like the people. So I processed with a smooting/slow motion interpolator, which ends up morphing it into 30 frames per second, leaving some artifacts since some information is lost between frames.

I used a fast (F2), wide angle lens, and a high iso (50-10000) with 4 or 5 fps on the camera to increase exposure time. I then up-processed the FPS to 30 using slow-motion interpolation. That's why my friend looks weird when he moves fast.

[@telejeff]

I used an older sony nex 6 around iso 3200 with a Rokinon f2.8 fisheye. There are much faster cameras out now that can do a much better job. I worked with a sony a7s with a 24mm Rokinon f1.4 that was many times faster, able to get around iso 20-50,000 and still look halfway decent. The difference is that this event was extremely bright, so it was the only time it was actually worth trying to take a video with my slower camera. Notice that Dexter is amazed that he's getting handheld shots on his iphone, and they are turning out great. It was an exciting night for us. To see the a7s setup, there are scenes in this video that really push the camera to its limits to film dim aurora and milky way in real time: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aaLIaqyYrb-qhrM.

[@telejeff]

I should also note, and I think it's obvious in the videos, that I'm using a lower frame rate than the standard 30 or 24 fps, I'm using something more like 5 fps to enable longer exposure times. It gives a choppy video, but it it is real time, as opposed to taking 5 fps and speeding it up to 30fps to make a smoother video that is time lapsed (as I did in the very end of the video). I'd love to be able to do it all at 30fps, but it's just too dim for my camera. I used some software to smooth out the choppiness a little, but it's not perfect.

[@jeroldcrawford3431]

@@telejeff Actually I was. Scientists actually reported that they were able to quantify sounds from auroras. This is something that many of us who have lived in high latitudes have heard about. I personally have never heard them but was adverse to being out in the cold weather when I lived in Alaska. My some of my Alaska native friends said that is did happen from time to time. Here is are exerpts from an article from the National Geographic on the subject. Auroras Make Weird Noises, and Now We Know Why A new theory offers what may be the best explanation yet for hisses and pops heard during powerful light displays. ARCTIC WILDERNESS TALES often wax poetic about dazzling displays of northern lights painting the skies. But for at least the past century, some of those stories have also mentioned eerie noises associated with especially powerful auroras. Witnesses say the sounds are comparable to radio static, like a faint crackling, light rustling, or hissing heard for a few minutes during a strong display. While the weird sounds were long considered folklore, Finnish scientists have not only shown that they really happen, but now the team thinks they know why. The answer can be traced to charged particles trapped in a layer of the atmosphere that forms during cold nights. These particles rapidly discharge when bursts of material from the sun slam into Earth, producing clapping sounds and other noises, the team reported on June 22 at the Baltic-Nordic Acoustic Meeting in Stockholm, Sweden. Charged particles are constantly streaming from the sun in the solar wind, and auroras occur when these particles interact with Earth's magnetic field. The particles are funneled toward the poles, where they slam into the atmosphere and set off colorful light shows. Sometimes, the sun flings off major bursts of particles that, when aimed at Earth, can set off disturbances in the planet’s magnetic field known as geomagnetic storms. These storms can interfere with orbiting satellites and even the electrical grid, but they also produce the most dramatic auroral displays. Previously, one of the leading theories for aurora noise suggested that tree needles or pine cones may be involved. During geomagnetic storms, the atmosphere can hold abnormally high electric fields, creating a difference in charge between the air and objects on the ground. Anything pointy, like leaves and pine cones, would offer the perfect surface for electricity to discharge, like a static shock jumping from a doorknob to your finger, and that might set off an audible cracking sound. But back in 2012, Aalto University researcher Unto K. Laine was able to prove that auroral sounds were emanating from above the treetops-230 feet (70 meters) above Earth’s surface-during the times of the most intense displays. Now, his team’s follow-up study proposes a specific explanation for the auroral snap, crackle, and pop. The key is something called an inversion layer, a region of the atmosphere where the air temperature increases with altitude instead of experiencing the usual decrease. Such layers can develop after calm, sunny days, says Laine. After sunset, warmer air rises while the surface cools, and continuing calm conditions mean the two temperature regions don't mix. According to Laine and his team, this inversion layer then acts like a lid, trapping negative electrical charge in the region below it and positive charge in the air above. When a geomagnetic storm hits Earth, the lid breaks and the charge is released, creating the weird sounds. This theory matches nicely with the team’s previous observations. They showed that 60 of the loudest recorded sounds originated about 250 feet (75 meters) above the ground. That’s the same altitude as a typical inversion layer, according to independent measurements conducted by the Finnish Meteorological Institute. "Auroral sound is a phenomenon that is dismissed by many people, scientists and otherwise, as originating in the imagination of the observer," says Dirk Lummerzheim, an aurora researcher at the University of Alaska, Fairbanks. "I think this is the first time that the sounds are not only observed to actually be an acoustic signal-as opposed to something that is manufactured in the human brain, for example, similar to synesthesia-but Doctor Laine also has proposed a physical process that provides a good explanation." How to See, and Hear, Auroras To catch elusive aurora displays and maybe even hear their strange sounds, it’s best to be near or around the Arctic Circle, although powerful solar storms can spark auroras in much more temperate latitudes, too. Take a look outside around local midnight, facing the northern horizon from as dark a location as possible. Light pollution really filters out the weaker northern lights, so from city suburbs we probably catch only the stronger displays. The show usually starts with a faint greenish ribbon glowing across the northern horizon. Then, if there is a storm of particles, you could see ribbons and curtains of colors dance over much of the sky. There are no guarantees that you will see auroras on any clear night, but there is a way to hedge your bets, such as signing up for email alerts from Spaceweather.com, which tracks the solar activity and outbursts that create these amazing sights.

@@jeroldcrawford3431 Thanks for the info! I have heard this theory, but I have yet to actually hear a recording of it. I have heard a recording of radio static from aurora, but not an acoustic recording. This would be really cool to hear and I hope the theory is right, but I'm always a little skeptical until it's fully substantiated (I still haven't heard a real recording, are we both waiting to hear it?). It really is a friendly joke among amateur astronomers that they "hear" events from excited bystanders, so I hope there's no hard feelings about being tricked by my clickbait title! I admit the title is a slight practical joke, but we were truly excited about this amazing aurora, and we were trying to wake up our friends so they wouldn't miss it.
