ALBAWABA - A video circulating across social media took the internet by storm after spotting an airplane going into the recent geometric solar storm. 

According to a video by Blinx, the airplane in question had a passenger from Argentina and was flying in Argentina's red skies caused by the geometric solar storm which was later followed by the beautiful northern lights (also known as the Aurora lights).

This was deemed quite dangerous among social media users as the weather caused Elon Musk's Starlink and location services including GPS. Other than red, the storm has colored the world's skies differently with purple and blue.

According to Reuters, this geomagnetic storm that hit many parts of Latin America is considered the most extreme to hit Earth in 20 years. Moreover, it first hit countries from Tasmania to Argentina on Friday, May 10, 2024, and was later upgraded to an extreme one as mentioned above. 

With the stunning Aurora lights on display, many photos swarmed social media outlets including X (formerly known as Twitter):
