The Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, are a mesmerizing natural light display occurring in high-latitude regions near the Arctic Circle. Caused by the interaction of charged solar particles with the Earth’s atmosphere, these lights manifest in vibrant colors such as green, pink, purple, blue, and red. Best observed during winter in locations like Scandinavia, Iceland, Canada, Alaska, and northern Russia, the Northern Lights’ visibility is influenced by solar activity and peaks during solar storms. The phenomenon holds cultural significance, and guided tours are popular for optimal viewing conditions. The Southern Hemisphere has its counterpart, the Aurora Australis or Southern Lights, near the Antarctic Circle. Witnessing the Northern Lights is a captivating experience, drawing tourists and photographers to behold the celestial spectacle.
