Aurora Borealis
The Aurora Borealis splendid moving lights are collisions between the sun’s electrically charged particles that enter the world’s environment. The Aurora Borealis lights can be seen over the northern and southern globe halves. This beautiful phenomenon is known as “Aurora Borealis” in the north and “Aurora Australis” in the south. “Aurora Borealis” comes from Aurora, which means “Roman goddess of the dawn” in Latin, plus Borealis meaning “north” in Latin. This is why the well-known Aurora Borealis is known as the Northern Lights.
Auroral presentations appear in a wide variety of shades, mainly light green, pink, and violet. Shades of yellow, red, blue, and green have been accounted for. The Aurora Borealis lights show up in many different ways, from scattered surges of light to streams, patches, undulating drapes, circular segments, or shooting beams that light up the sky with an eerie shine.
