This rare spectacle, expected before 2037, lit up the sky: here are the best views from around the world.
Some baby turtles have arrived safely at sea after being removed from a nest on a Mississippi beach.
In January 2023, the Institute for Marine Mammal Studies (IMMS) discovered a sea turtle nest at Pass Christian, a rare phenomenon on the artificial beach.
During a search for the hatchlings, IMMS staff discovered 84 eggs, including 12 live hatchlings.
"Survival estimates for newborns are very low. About one in every thousand newborns reaches adulthood."
This is because turtles must survive to adulthood, usually 15 to 20 years, sometimes even 30 years, before they begin laying eggs," said Theresa Madrigal, IMMS stranding coordinator.
