... Special Reports Giant space cloud may be powered by black holes 17:57 23 April 2007 NewScientist.com news service David Shiga An enormous cloud of roiling plasma in space may be drawing its energy from black holes, new observations suggest. Such clouds might be sources for the mysterious particles that occasionally crash into Earth's atmosphere at ultra - high speed. ... But higher energy particles in the cloud may be able to escape, he says. ...

... Low-latitude aurorae are a storm time phenomena, in which particles originating from the ring current (and/or which are energized by the ring current) enter the lower thermosphere causing optical emission. It has been suggested (Rassoul et al., 1993) that four "pure" types of such auroras exist, as shown in table below, where LEE = low energy electron aurora, and HP = heavy particle aurora. ... low-latitude . ... One should thus not confuse them with other red emissions from much lower altitudes. ...

What will happen when the fragments hit Jupiter? ... All the fragments will enter Jupiter's atmosphere at an angle of 42 degrees from the vertical and impact near a latitude of 44 degrees south, but on the back side of the planet as seen from Earth (about 10 degrees in longitude behind the edge of Jupiter, as seen from Earth). ... Any body moving through an atmosphere is slowed by atmospheric drag, by having to push the molecules of that atmosphere out of the way. ...
