What are the Aurora Borealis? Solar storms that appear to us as beautiful colored lights in the sky. Auroras are named after the roman goddess Aurora, god of dawn. Solar storms that appear to us as beautiful colored lights in the sky. Auroras are named after the roman goddess Aurora, god of dawn.

The best place to see them? The best place to see the Aurora Borealis is near polar regions. Seen all parts of the year. They can last for days. Why? Energetic electrons are guided to the polar regions by the earth’s magnetic field. The best place to see the Aurora Borealis is near polar regions. Seen all parts of the year. They can last for days.

Myths about Auroras. Roman: Goddess of Dawn Medieval: War New Zealand, Europe, North America: Torches or Campfires Roman: Goddess of Dawn Medieval: War New Zealand, Europe, North America: Torches or Campfires

How are Auroras caused? A solar storm occurs. Electrons pump up atoms and emit a burst of plasma or charged gas creating a burst of light that is caught in earth’s magnetic field.

How often can you see the Auroras? Troms and Finnmark: on clear nights or even more often. Southern Norway: few times a month. Central Europe: few times a year. Mediterranean: few times each century.

Did you know? Auroras in the Northern Hemisphere are called Aurora Borealis. In the the Southern Hemisphere, Auroras are called Aurora Australias. Auroras were first noted by the Ancient Greeks. “Earliest known examples of solar terrestrial interaction.” Auroras in the Northern Hemisphere are called Aurora Borealis.
