The secrets of the northern lights

Meanwhile, the National History Museum website reports on the fascinating northern lights, also called Aurora Borealis, which illuminate the night sky of the northern hemisphere in gentle, colorful waves. These magical lights are the result of the interaction between the sun magnetic field and the earth. Scientists agree that the energy of the sun, which is thrown into space in the form of invited particles, is responsible. The colors of the northern lights, which arise from the meeting of these particles with different elements in the earth's atmosphere, are particularly striking. In this way, high -lying oxygen generates red light, while oxygen at medium heights primarily sets green accents. This exciting light show is particularly active during the sun cycles that fluctuate every 11 years and reflects the power of the sun, with which it promotes high -energy particles into the atmosphere.

The best times to see the northern lights are, on the other hand, the months of March and April and September and October, where they often occur more intensely, especially about the same day. Regions such as Iceland and Finland are ideal for the experience. In addition, there are scientific predictions that inform when and where the northern lights will be visible, but the exact conditions are complex and vary with solar activity. But for all adventurous, waiting for the appearance of the northern lights is clearly an unforgettable experience.
