*** About Northern Lights: The northern lights, or aurora borealis, are a spectacular natural phenomenon that typically occurs in high-latitude regions around the Arctic and Antarctic. These lights are the result of interactions between the Earth's magnetic field and charged particles from the sun. Spectators can witness a mesmerizing display of color and light as these particles collide with gases like nitrogen and oxygen in Earth's atmosphere. The colors can vary depending on the type of gas involved, with oxygen producing green and red lights and nitrogen creating blue and purple hues. While primarily visible in polar regions, strong solar activity can sometimes bring this natural light show to lower latitudes.
