Aurora display, Yukon, Canada

Auroras are a beautiful natural phenomenon also known as polar lights. They are mostly just observed in places in the higher latitude and a dark night sky. The stunning lights can be seen in different forms such as rays, waves, and even flickers. Auroras appear in a plethora of hues, but pink and green are most common. Interestingly, Earth is not the only planet that experiences this gorgeous natural display of light patterns. Many other planets and even some comets are also hosts to auroras.
