How Beautiful it is When the Sun is Trying to Kill Us

Details

Description

The Aurora borealis is caused by the interaction of charged particles from the sun with the Earth's atmosphere, which leads to the release of energy in the form of light. This beautiful phenomenon is typically seen near the poles, and the colors of the aurora are determined by the gases present in the Earth's atmosphere.
