- If that's the only question my friends, Let us get started.
- Why of course it is, that's the reason why I've come here today to talk about the space unit of the Aurora Borealis here in my first day of this class.
- (1)

- The energy from this produces a spectacle of light, which mankind has known for centuries.
- The Aurora Borealis occurs when high energy particles from the Sun collide with neutral atoms in our atmosphere

- The protons and electrons which make the northern liights are departed from the Sun's corona, the corona is the outermost layer of the
- Sun's atmosphere and one of the hottest regions, the heat makes all of the protons and electrons to be shaken off.
- But the solar wind is interfered by Earth's magnetosphere, and when the sun launches a massive solar wind it breaks the magnetosphere.

- With these protons and electrons, they form plasma when they travel away from the sun, its known as solar wind.
- 5
- It becomes dragged down to the aurora ovals, and to which the northern and southern lights are located!
- Electrons and protons give oxygen and nitrogen atoms a little handshake which gives them energy to Earth's neutral oxygen and nitrogen atoms
- When the atoms are contacted by particles they emit photons.

- When the Sun's particles have travelled 93 million miles across the galaxy, it produces the dazzling light show caused by electrons and protons meeting up with oxygen and nitrogen atoms.
- After the magnetosphere is broken, the solar wind flings detoured particles towards Earth.

- Excited oxygen atoms are responsible for the colors green and red, to where excited nitrogen atoms are responsible for blue and deep red hues. These collections of interactions is what actually create the northern and southern lights. And of course they are best viewed at night time.
- Hope you all had fun today! And I will see you again soon!

- And that ladies and gentlemen is the Aurora Borealis! It's cool right? I thought so aswell. This is the end of the lesson the Aurora Borealis.
- Photons are small little bursts of energy in the form of light

- Wow! That was such a cool lesson, Mr. Carson is good at science. I hope we get him again next week!
- That was really fun I agree! I learned a lot as well. I do really want Mr. Carson as our teacher forever!
- Yeah! Now I know what an Aurora Borealis is, I can't wait to put it in my journal on what we learned today!
