Meet STEVE
STEVE, or Strong Thermal Emission Velocity Enhancement, is a strange light in the sky that occurs close to the equator. STEVE generally has a purple or mauve ribbon of light that occurs from heated plasma particles, which heat other particles in the sky. STEVE also has green lights, which are being called the "picket fence". These green lights occur from electrons from space which excite oxygen molecules and cause them to glow green. Researchers believe STEVE is being caused by something special, but don't know what yet.
