Learn What Creates the Colors in the Northern Lights as we break down a little bit of the science behind those awesome Auroras.
From greens, to pinks and purples, to red, and even yellow and orange, we see an array of colors displayed in the Northern Lights. Over the years, we've seen nearly every color you might imagine in the Aurora. And one of the most common questions we get, is what creates those colors we see and photograph in the Northern Lights? We break it all down so by the end of this video, you'll have an understanding of what causes those aurora colors as well.

Last night's aurora in Montana was amazing. We saw lots of red and I had no idea how rare that was. Also, 3/4 of the sky was filled with light at one point with beautiful teals and greens in large streams across a dome of sky. It was my second aurora and a KP of 9. I feel blessed! Beautiful. I see why people spend so much time chasings these wonders. Thanks for the video.

I thank you so much for your explanation on the different colors seen of the northern lights. I knew the cause of the Auroras was from sun flares from the surface of the sun flinging gases that were attracted to our magnetic poles… and I did assume the colors were from the different gases hitting our upper atmosphere but I never knew more. I lived in Northern Alberta, within 100 miles of Grande Prairie and/or Northern Ontario, Moosonee to be exact from 1972 - 1990. I lived in very remote areas in both Provinces so there was total absence of ambient light in the winter nights. I now live in Southern Mississippi and with the help of the internet I occasionally view videos of the Northern Lights. I happily happened upon your video with a basic explanation of the various colors seen. My son recently sent me photos of the Northern Lights taken from Lake Athabasca in far Northern Saskatchewan this Spring and in one photo the Lights were bright red with some green.. now I know one reason they were red was because they were seen in the late Spring. I look forward to following you in the future and learning more. Thanks so much.

Correct. They don't always move fast but they do on occasion. The reason for so much time-lapse is that until the recent tech, we couldn't capture them in real-time.

No doubt. I should note that I use the term Auroras to cover both the Southern and Northern Lights. They are after all mirrors of one another and the same Aurora. But I should probably mention that. I'll be sure to not leave you out in the video explaining what causes the Auroras.

You mentioned that we don't normally see red Arora's. That got me thinking. We humans only see a fraction of a fraction of the visible spectrum. Is there other wavelengths that humans don't see being produced? Like if we had a camera/sensor/detector that looked for ultraviolet or inferred or x-rays or something would we see similar displays

Hello there. Thank you dearly for the easy explained things. Though, could I ask for your opinion on why sometimes the Aurora shows off pretty saturated yellow and orange(even clearly visible with the naked eyes) at the very bottom(near horizon)? Saw it few times an hour after sunset(civil). Thank you in advance.

So, this is about the Stuff-side, physics of Aurora, the Live-side of Aurora, is korrespondance with other Planet-Being, I cant say exactly, but about 50% of earth-quakes and volcano-eruptions, also have to do with korrespondance, among Macro-beings. Rainbow mirror our Consciousness, colors show our Eternal set of Abilities, but it might be to early to conclude or read the Meaning through the dynamic compositions of the colors. A Highly developed Intuition is necessary to really understand. Instinct, Gravity, Feeling, Intelligence, Intuition, Memory, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo.

I saw the red colors with my unaided eyes as well. You need to keep in mind that what we are seeing this weekend (5/2024) is not a common occurrence. This geomagnetic storm has a rating of G4 which is the second strongest storm of its kind. So, what they stated in the video is true, and we should consider ourselves fortunate.

I see actual living beings of light and they travel through the lights. They watch you watch them and its creepy sometimes. Watchers. Trying to explain what life's light beings are cracked me up. "The centrifical forces against the wind's, causing atoms to collide" 😂 wind's are alive too along with the clouds that carry on them. Lighting has eyes as well. Before you laugh, I have proof. Our creator told us about this in the book of Enoch, thats how I found lightning coming from the eyes of a being. He created them. 2nd Enoch 20:3 is our true creators name. God of the Bi Baal bibell is lucifer 💯 facts. He's the father of all lies and this is just one of those lies about our world and what it's really made from. Hail Zeus bright Mourning star lucifer ✡️ his number is 6ptx6&6 point star fallen from heaven and all stars are fallen angels. The Watchers are real.
