Auroras happen when solar explosions and sun -masses make particles with high energy reach the earth and interact with nitrogen and oxygen atoms and molecules present in our atmosphere. This interaction creates the light -colored light tracks that can be seen in the sky.
When they occur in the northern hemisphere, they are called boreal auroras; In the south, the name given is of Austral Auroras.
