How many Auroras on earth?
2
What can cause auroras near earth poles?
Solar winds are the out-of-this-world event that cause auroras to appear on earth. Auroras can happen near both the north and the south poles.
When are Auroras produced in earth's atmosphere?
yeah boys am good
What causes auroras on Earth?
The suns radiation hitting our atmosphere
What cause Earth's auroras?
The suns radiation hitting our atmosphere
Why don't we see auroras on the moon?
The auroras we see on Earth are a result of Earth's magnetic field funneling high-energy particles from the sun into Earth's upper atmosphere, where excited electrons in gas molecules create a glow. The moon has no magnetic field and no atmosphere.
Does disturbances in Earth's magnetic field cause auroras?
Not quite but they would affect the auroras. The physical, light-emitting reaction is that between charged particles from the Sun and the field.
What are the Auroras caused by?
Caused by the collision of charged particles directed by the magnetic field of earth. Mostly common in polar regions auroras are good astronomical sight at night.
How does energy from the sun flow to earth to create the auroras?
The auroras are primarily the result of charged subatomic particles from the sun, and their deflection toward the poles by the Earth's magnetic field. The swarm of particles is often called, picturesquely, the 'solar wind'.
How big are Auroras?
Auroras have no definite size. They occur when charged particles from the Sun ionize particles in the upper atmosphere as they spiral in toward Earth's magnetic field. Auroras may be localized in one area, or may extend from horizon to horizon in the sky.
