„Red Northern Light“

from the gallery of Jean-Marc Champeval
Description:

A mesmerizing ribbons of colour swirling across the sky is one of the great natural wonders of the world.
The colors of auroras are determined by the gases in the Earth's atmosphere, and incoming solar particles tend to collide with different gases at different heights. Very high up (above 300 km / 185 miles), oxygen is the most common gas, and collisions there can create a rare red aurora.
