The polar regions of the magnetosphere is where the Auroras form. Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights) at the North Pole, and Aurora Australis (Southern Lights) at the South Pole. These Auroras form when highly charged particals from coronal mass ejections (CME's) collide with oxygen and nitrogen in the upper atmosphere and raise the energy levels of the two aforementioned elements.
