NOAA. By: Alexis Gross Science Shepard

 Auroras are released energy from atoms.  The extraordinary light is caused from the atoms exciting. NOAA.

 Auroras are caused by the sun.  When plasma from the sun rises and bursts it thrusts highly charged protons and electrons towards us they meet with gases and atoms witch makes them excite. After a while they calm down and release energy.  Usually in the poles NOAA.

 Auroras really don’t have time limits.  An Aurora can happen anywhere from a minute to an hour NOAA. /David Miller

 Auroras can happen any time of year depending on the location.  Usually in mid-winter  In New England and or chili every few years is when they occur. NOAA.

 Auroras themselves don’t do any damage it’s the way they are made that does.  It can disrupt satellite's and Gps signals. NOAA.

 The best time of the night to see one: 10:00pm to 12:00am.  Best conditions: clear night with no moon and far from light pollution. NOAA.
