Auroras change color due to the type of gas molecules in the Earth's atmosphere that are being excited by solar wind particles. Different gases emit different colors when they are energized, resulting in the vibrant displays of colors in the auroras.
The rarest color in auroras is blue. Blue auroras occur at higher altitudes than other colors, around 60 miles above the Earth's surface. They are less commonly seen compared to green and red auroras.
There are pink auroras too! the green wavelength (557.7 nm) is from oxygen; nitrogen gives pink 630.0 nm).
Auroras borealis, or northern lights, primarily manifest in two types: diffuse auroras and discrete auroras. Diffuse auroras appear as broad, glowing bands of light that cover large areas and often have a more uniform brightness. In contrast, discrete auroras consist of distinct, bright arcs or bands that can shift and change rapidly, often displaying vibrant colors. These phenomena are caused by charged particles from the solar wind interacting with the Earth’s magnetic field and atmosphere.
Auroras appears in the night sky by atoms and molecules. Auroras is lights in the sky.
Red, it is the color with the longest wave lengths and lowest frequencies. While violet has the shortest wave lengths and the highest frequencies. ( Goes on from red, left to right, when talking about the rainbow!) Hope this helped! Resources: ThinkCentral ( online text book )

well i think it would be red, maybe green. Even yellow at times.Improving the answerBy: hulk789The sky is blue due the sunlight being filtered through atmospheric gases. The only places where the sky will turn red, green, yellow, or any other sort of colors for that matter is at the 2 magnetic poles, the north magnetic pole and the south magnetic poles. The color change are the characteristics auroras, a natural electrical phenomenon. Which means auroras cause the color change in the sky.

Auroras occur in the mesospere.

The Auroras of Autumn was created in 1950-09.
Sun dogs are formed differently to auroras
auroras are the northern lights, and that is a very important event in Alaska

color change is when a color changes
Which can cause auroras and disrupt satellite transmission?
