What are northern light how do they form?

The Northern Lights are also called the Aurora Borealis. The Northern Lights is the effect of magnetic reactions. The Northern Lights are best seen in the North Pole and the South Pole. The sun gives off energy particles that is also called solar wind. The solar particles travel hundreds of miles in seconds. When the solar particles get close to earth they collide into the atmosphere and explodes. When millions of these explosions happen they create light. That light is called the Northern Lights or the Aurora Borealis.


What was found in the second photograph of the Northern Lights in the golden compass?

The Aurora Borealis (the 'Northern Lights' of the title) and the mysterious elementary particles called Dust.


What is Mysterious moving lights in sky called?

These are called auroras, or the northern/southern lights, depending on which pole you are at. The northern lights are also known as the Aurora Borealis, while the southern lights are known as the Aurora Australis. It is the interaction of charged particles directed by the Earth's magnetic field.


Do the charged particles emitted from the sun cause the Northern Lights?

Yes, charged particles from the sun collide with oxygen and nitrogen atoms in the earth's ionosphere to cause the Northern and Southern Lights.


Effects that charged particles have hitting gas particles in the Earth's atmosphere?

Aurora. Northern Lights.


What are the northern lights in Antarctica called?

They'd be the Southern Lights, not northern.


Can you see the northern lights on Mars?

No. The Northern and Southern lights, called aurora, are the result of Earth's magnetic field funneling high-energy particles from the sun toward the poles. Mars does not have a magnetic field and so does not have aurora.


What lights make northern lights?

Northern lights, or auroras, are caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere. The charged particles originate in the magnetosphere and solar wind and are directed by the Earth's magnetic field into the atmosphere.


What is a natural light show caused by particles in the air that at charged by solar particles?

The Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights.


What are the Particles of plasma flowing out from our sun create the northern lights?

The Solar Winds


A glowing region caused by charged particles from the sun?

It is the northern lights. The northern lights are caused by charged particles that sometimes are sucked into the Earth on either ends of the poles. They also have other names but I can't remember. Thanks!!


How do the northern lights get their color?

The Northern Lights, also known as Aurora Borealis is caused by collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun that enters the earth's atmosphere. The type of gas particles that are colliding result in the variations in color.
