Northern Lights

The Northern lights are a night sky phenomenon triggered by electrical collisions of charged particles emitted from the sun. They are hurled through the atmosphere via the solar winds and appear in various colors and shapes in northern latitudes. Alaska's north latitude makes it an ideal location to view this phenomenon.
