The Aurora Borealis, better known as the Northern Lights, is a natural phenomenon that occurs when solar particles interact with the atmosphere in the Earth's magnetic field. This releases energy, creating mysterious luminous green streaks across the sky that can be complemented by large expanses full of beautiful pillars of light and even moving shapes in green but depending on the strength also in other colors such as pink or purple.
