August 18th, 2008 by admin | 1 Comment | Filed in Lights

Northern and Southern Polar Lights, also known as Aurora Borealis and Aurora Australis respectively, are natural colored lights in the sky during the night in the North and South Polar zones. They are produced by the collision of charged particles from Earth’s magnetosphere.

The aurora borealis most often occurs from September to October and from March to April. The locals call this phenomenon the Dance of the Spirits.
