Who discovered the northern lights?
No one can be said to have discovered a natural phenomena that has been known since before recorded time. The Aurora Borealis and the Aurora Australis, sometimes called The Northern and Southern Lights, are natural light displays in the sky, usually observed at night, particularly in the polar regions. Natural phenomena such as the Aurora Borealis have been in existence for millions of years, from times before people existed.
Why is the aurora Borealis or northern lights are visible in the in the Nordic nations?
Because the Nordic area is one region where the Earth Magnetic field's inclination is steep to vertical.
When was the Aurora Borealis formed?
It wasn't formed at one particular time - It's ongoing, as the magnetic field made by the earth's magnetic core, diverts the harmful radiation and charged particles from the sun away from the poles.
Does Aurora borealis emit light?
Yes it does, solarly charged electrons from the sun fall towards Earth at over one million miles per hour, it takes the electrons roughly 40 hours to reach Earth. When they fall towards the magnetic poles the charged electrons collide with nitrogen and oxygen atoms in the gaseous atmosphere, the knock an atom's electron off course and when it returns to the correct orbit the atom releases a photon. Photons are light particles, so yes the aurora borealis does emit light.

What is the difference between a Aurora borealis and a Aurora australis?
The Aurora Borealis is in the northen hemisphere at the north pole. However the Aurora Australis is in the southern hemisphere at the south pole. That is the only difference in them; they are both formed in the same way. They are both polar lights. One is the Aurora Borealis, the northern lights and the Aurora Australis, the southern lights. They are on the different poles on the earth, other than that, they are the same. Borealis is near the North Pole. Australis is near the South pole. The Aurora Borealis is at the north magnetic pole: the Aurora Australis is at the south magnetic pole. That's the only difference. They are both really the same thing but are visible from different places in the world. The aurora borealis can be seen in Northern England and in Scotland sometime, normally in summer and spring. The aurora austalis can be seen from places like Australia and New Zealand. Another difference is that the aurora borealis are brighter that the aurora austalis

Yes, many people (including me) have seen the aurora borealis. If you live in Canada, or one of the northern tier of states in the USA, or England, Scotland, Norway, Sweden or Finland or the northern half of Russia, you probably have, too.
When does the araura borealis occur?
The auroa borealis occurs when all of the planets becomes the most gasiest and they all collide into one planet creating different colors within the sky because of the different textures of each planet. The aurora borealis rarely occurs and there havent been one present in centuries!!!!!
Where can one find more information about the Aurora project?
You can find information at the auroraos website. They have different area where you can look at the different sections of their information. They have support, about, and community sections.

What are the Effects of a solar storm?
One effect is the aurora borealis or Northern lights which are very beautiful this time of year. High electro magnetic activity.

Does Manitoba Canada have northern lights?
Yes, absolutely it does. I live in Manitoba and Aurora Borealis is very common here. You can see them a whole lot in Churchill, Manitoba. Churchill is located on Hudsons Bay and is one of the most famous cities for Aurora Borealis in the whole world. Churchill is also very popular for its amazing vast scenery and polar bears.
