14. AURORA
An aurora is a flickering light mostly caused by the sun's radiation, usually found near the poles.
They come in red, green and occasionally blue, and can sometimes resemble fire. In fact, the
Roman Emperor Tiberius thought a city was on fire, so he sent fire engines to that city. The city on
fire was actually a city against a backdrop of a red aurora.
An Aurora can happen in the Arctic, around the North Pole (Aurora borealis - Dawn of the North -
there it is also called the Northern Lights) or in the Antarctic around the South Pole (Aurora
australis - Dawn of the South). An aurora can often be seen from long distances and stretching in
the sky many hundreds of kilometers or miles. Auroras can only be seen at night because their
light is not as strong as the light of day. For instance, faint stars can be seen through the aurora.
However they do happen during the day as well.
Aurora occurs when the Sun sends off matter we call particles to the empty space. These particles
are charged and contain energy, which means they contribute to electricity. These particles flying
in space are called "solar wind". Sometimes the solar wind hits Earth. Earth has a protective
shield of energy around it. This is called the "magnetic field" and forms an elongated sphere
around the Earth called the "magnetosphere". The Earth’s magnetic field wards off most of the
solar wind.
15. At high-latitude areas (polar areas), the magnetic field is less powerful, and cannot protect
Earth from the solar wind. There the particles of the solar wind and coming from the
magnetosphere may hit the particles of the air (Earth's atmosphere). When they hit, the
atmosphere is heated and excited and the excess energy gets away, a phenomenon which
we see as moving lights in the sky above 100 km altitude typically. An aurora can be
especially bright following a solar event called a coronal mass ejection (CME), when the
charged particles rip through the electromagnetic field because of their power.
Auroral phenomena have been observed on other planets than Earth that have a magnetic
field, such as Jupiter, Saturn and more recently Mars. It is believed to be a widespread
phenomenon in the Solar System and beyond. Many legends are associated with the aurora,
in all countries where this phenomenon regularly occurs.
