Red auroras are caused by nitrogen or oxygen emissions and altitude. When the aurora occurs at a very high altitude, there is enough oxygen present that it can take the time needed to emit a red light, without colliding with another molecule.
What else can I help you with?
What causes auroras on Earth?
The suns radiation hitting our atmosphere
What causes auroras and disrupts satellite transmissions?
ultraviolent radiation
How does solar wind cause auroras?
Solar wind causes auroras because atoms go through water droplets in clouds. They act as prisms (the raindrops) and this causes the billowing, beautiful Aurora Borealis.
What causes auroras on the moon?
Auroras on the moon are caused by the interaction of the solar wind and the moon's surface. Charged particles from the solar wind interact with the moon's magnetic field, resulting in auroras. However, the moon's lack of a significant atmosphere means the auroras are much fainter than those seen on Earth.
What causes an engine rattle in a 1999 Oldsmobile when accelerating?
Auroras use only premioum gass
What is the rarest color in the auroras?
The rarest color in auroras is blue. Blue auroras occur at higher altitudes than other colors, around 60 miles above the Earth's surface. They are less commonly seen compared to green and red auroras.
Which color of aurora gives off higher energy light green or red?
Red, it is the color with the longest wave lengths and lowest frequencies. While violet has the shortest wave lengths and the highest frequencies. ( Goes on from red, left to right, when talking about the rainbow!) Hope this helped! Resources: ThinkCentral ( online text book )
What produces the Auroras?
Auroras are produced when charged particles from the sun (solar wind) interact with the Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere. This interaction causes the particles to emit light, creating the colorful displays known as auroras.
How do Auroras develop?
Auroras occur in the mesospere.
Do the Northern Lights contain all the colors?
No, the auroras usually only have green, blue and red, as well as combinations of these.
Do the Northern Lights contain seven colors?
No, the auroras usually only have green, blue and red, as well as combinations of these.
How do auroras appear in the night sky?
Auroras appears in the night sky by atoms and molecules. Auroras is lights in the sky.
