The Northern Lights are one of the great wonders of Mother Nature. The Northern Lights Center explains, “The Northern Lights are actually the result of collisions between gaseous particles in the Earth’s atmosphere with charged particles released from the sun’s atmosphere. Variations in colour are due to the type of gas particles that are colliding.” The phenomenon is truly a site to be seen. Below, 10 incredible pictures of the Northern Lights.
