It wasn't really all that long ago that it was always annoyingly obvious when they used a green/blue screen with weird blue halos around the actors and inconsistent perspective, even in big budget films. Now it seems so perfect that even if I'm looking for it I can't see it, and on TV shows no less.

Computers are cool.

From APOD:
Upon inspection and contemplation, a leading hypothesis for its cause has now emerged. In sum, this hypothesis holds that a lightning discharge in a thundercloud can temporarily change the electric field above the cloud where charged ice crystals were reflecting sunlight. The new electric field quickly re-orients the geometric crystals to a new orientation that reflects sunlight differently.
In other words, a lightning discharge can cause a sundog to jump. Soon, the old electric field may be restored, causing the ice crystals to return to their original orientation.

TL;DR: It was aliens.

Impressive, and upcoming Halo one could be interesting too.

anyone know what that green halo is?


That is refraction at its finest. It also turns yellow, orange, and red (ect) because of the position of the camera relative to the sun and the atmosphere. The atmosphere really is just like a big ocean in the sky, and as such, you get to see all sorts of colors at the right angles, like an earth prism. I watch a lot of shuttle feeds btw

I'm guessing that it is aurora; a less energetic presentation than this: http://videosift.com/video/Aurora-Australis-as-seen-from-the-ISS
