Auroras occur primarily in the thermosphere, which is part of the Earth's atmosphere located about 80 to 600 kilometers (50 to 370 miles) above the surface. This phenomenon is caused by the interaction of charged particles from the solar wind with the Earth's magnetic field, resulting in stunning displays of light, typically seen near the polar regions. The most common types are the Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) and Aurora Australis (Southern Lights).
Charged particles from the Sun striking the upper atmosphere.
The aurora borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, is caused by solar wind particles interacting with gases in Earth's atmosphere. Specifically, charged particles from the sun are drawn towards the Earth's magnetic poles, where they collide with gases such as oxygen and nitrogen in the upper atmosphere, resulting in the colorful light display known as the aurora borealis.
The Aurora Borealis and its southern counterpart the Aurora Australis are formed high in the atmosphere in the ionosphere, which is sometimes considered as part of the thermosphere, the outermost actual atmosphere. Above this layer, the exosphere has so few molecules that they can escape into space.(see the related question below)
Aurora is a noun.

No. It is part of the hydrosphere.

Upper Part
Yes. Hydrogen is part - albeit a very small part - of the Earth's atmosphere. Typically it makes up about 0.000055% of the atmosphere

ozone
The ozone part of atmosphere. It is the most precious part.
the entire atmosphere...
I think it's the atmosphere
Hydrogen I believe
