The aurora borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, is a natural light display that occurs in the high-latitude regions of the Northern Hemisphere.
The aurora borealis is caused by charged particles from the solar wind interacting with Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere.
The aurora borealis has captivated people for centuries and continues to be a source of wonder and inspiration for astronomers, photographers, and travelers alike.
The best places to witness the aurora borealis are in northern latitudes, such as Alaska, Canada, Scandinavia, and Iceland.
The colors of the aurora borealis can vary from green and pink to red, purple, and blue, depending on the type of gas particles in the atmosphere and their altitude.
