The solar winds from the sun are emitted towards the Earth, however, because of the Earth's magnetic field the winds are refracted away from the Earth. At the point where the magnetic field is at its lowest force, the winds can enter the Earth's surface and form an array of lights and colours which are the gases. The fact they are at either ends of the poles is the reason why they are called the Northern and Southern Lights.
