Auroras...

Hi again,




How is everything going?...


This time I want to talk about Auroras which is a light that you can see at nigths and at the poles (the north and south pole).

I heard this name when ı was at 5th grade.

The name was absolutely interesting for me.

Then I learnt more about Auroras but I always wanted to see one. So I pronised myself that I would see an Aurora one day...


These are what I know about Auroras :


  • Auroras are named after the Roman goddess of dawn(which means sunrise) and Aurora the Greek name for north wind.


  • You can see an Aurora both at the southern and the nordern pole.


  • Auroras occur on Saturn and Jupiter too.


  • It is known as aurora australis/southern polar lights at soutern hemisphere and aurora borealis in norden hemiphere.


  • We can see Auroras because the atoms which come from Sun interact with the Earths atmosphere.

Besides learning about Auroras I found some pictures :





P.S. : I think I won't be able to go to the poles before I am 18 but when I am that old I will go somewhere near a Pole and see an Aurora......


Don't you think Auroras are enchanting....?????


:)))))))))))))
