The aurora borealis (northern lights) are a colorful light show that occurs in the northern hemisphere. The light show produces many different colors although green and pink are the most common. Other colors that are visible include red, yellow, blue, and violet. The aurora borealis appears in many different forms such as patches, clouds of light, arcs, and shooting rays that light up the sky (“Northern Lights,” n.d.).

Solar wind, a rapidly moving stream of electrons and protons from the Sun, is accountable for stripping away ions such as hydrogen and oxygen from a planet’s atmosphere, releasing them into space.
