The northern lights, or aurora borealis, occur in the Earth's upper atmosphere between 60 and 250 miles above the Earth's surface. The distance from where they are visible on the ground can vary depending on the strength of the solar activity and atmospheric conditions. Typically, they can be seen in regions located within about 60-70 degrees latitude from the magnetic poles.
