ROYAL NAVY Goalkeepr Close in Weapon System (CIWS) with Northern Lights
The Northern lights provide a back drop to a goalkeeper weapon system on HMS Invincible.
The Northern lights or Aurora Borealis, occur on almost every clear night in the northern aurora zone. It is caused by the entry into the high atmosphere of a stream of charged solar particles, which are deflected by the earths permanent magnetic field, concentrated at the North (and South) Poles. These charged particles then precipitate through the atmosphere, interacting with atmospheric gases. whilst emitting light of various wavelengths and therefore colours

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the powerful and awe-inspiring combination of the Royal Navy's Goalkeeper Close in Weapon System (CIWS) with the enchanting Northern Lights as a breathtaking backdrop. On board HMS Invincible, this remarkable scene captures both the might of military equipment and the beauty of nature. The Northern lights, also known as Aurora Borealis, grace almost every clear night in the northern aurora zone. This natural phenomenon occurs when charged solar particles enter Earth's high atmosphere and interact with atmospheric gases, emitting vibrant light across various wavelengths and colors. The result is a mesmerizing display that illuminates the night sky. In this image, amidst a sea of stars, stands the formidable goalkeeper weapon system - an essential defense mechanism for naval operations. Its presence symbolizes strength and protection against potential threats at sea. Yet juxtaposed against this mighty machine is Mother Nature's celestial spectacle; an ethereal dance between charged particles and our planet's magnetic field. Photographed by POA (Phot) Paul Smith from Armed Forces, this extraordinary composition encapsulates not only technical prowess but also reminds us of our insignificance in comparison to nature's grandeur. It serves as a reminder that even amid man-made advancements, there are still wonders beyond our control that continue to captivate us all.
