The Northern Lights, or aurora borealis, are like a magical show in the sky. When charged particles from the Sun zoom through Earth’s magnetic field, they hit our atmosphere and light it up with pretty colors. It's like when you flick a switch and your room lights up, only this one is made by tiny particles from space.
Examples
- It's like when you spray paint on a dark wall, the lights are the color splashes from space particles hitting our atmosphere.
- Imagine tiny fireflies dancing in the sky every night, especially near the North Pole.
- The aurora is like Earth’s way of saying ‘hello’ to visitors from the Sun.
