Aurora is a natural event or phenomenon when colorful lights appear in the night sky.
This light appears in the form of slow moving waves.
The aurora that appear in the sky are divided into two types, namely aurora borealis and aurora australis.
Aurora borealis is an aurora that appears in the northern hemisphere (northen lights).
Meanwhile, the aurora australis is an aurora that appears in the southern hemisphere (southern lights).
Well, the appearance of auroras in the skies of several parts of the world today is the effect of solar flares.
Solar flares are a phenomenon of radiation from the sun’s rays due to the formation of sunspots or sunspots.
One sunspot can stretch thousands of kilometers on the surface of the Sun, one of which is larger than the diameter of our Earth, you know.
One of the largest sunspots currently forming on the surface of the Sun is AR3664, its size is 15 times the diameter of our Earth.
