Aurora Borealis

 

The Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis are created when electrons collide with air particles in the earth’s magnetic field. The resulting flash of colored light can be vivid purple, red, green or orange and all shades in between. The lights dance and move across the sky, taking on weird shapes and forms before vanishing. This is a spectacular natural phenomenon that is well worth witnessing. The aurora borealis are best seen from September to April, during the early evening or on a clear night.

 

 

Watch the spectacular light show of the aurora borealis as electrons and particles collide in the earth’s magnetic field.
