AMAZING ✨ Northern lights seen from Germany / Lower Saxony - 10.10.2024 (23:00 MEST)

🌌 Have you ever wondered what causes the stunning Northern Lights, also known as the Aurora Borealis? They occur when charged particles from the sun collide with the Earth's atmosphere. These particles are carried by solar winds and are drawn towards the magnetic poles of the Earth, where they interact with gases like oxygen and nitrogen. This creates those mesmerizing colors—usually greens, but sometimes reds, pinks, and purples—depending on the type of gas and altitude. It's truly one of nature’s most beautiful light shows!

Thanks for watching, and stay tuned for more astro content! 🌠

Cheers 🥂
