Presentation & Assessment
The Northern Lights, also called aurora borealis, are one of the most amazing natural wonders on our planet.
They are a beautiful light display in the sky, caused by interactions between solar wind and Earth’s magnetosphere. We can usually see them in high-latitude regions, like near the North Pole.
These lights have vibrant colors, such as bright green, soft pink, and deep purple. They dance across the dark night sky, looking like a magical, flowing curtain. It is truly a mesmerizing astronomical phenomenon that makes people feel the magic and power of nature.
