    The Auroras are two beautiful light displays put on for us at the north (borealis) and south (australia) poles caused by special energy coming from the sun (called the solar wind) bumping into part of the sky called the ‘magnetosphere’.

    Are you one of the lucky ones who has seen an aurora before?

    Very pretty and it shows that the Earths magnetic field is helping protecting us from harmful rays.

    It’s one of my life ambitions to see the aurora borealis and aurora australis… Have you seen them before @bates? Check out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBWPCvdv8Bk
