Sunday's aurora borealis proved how groovy the night sky can really be.
THE NIGHT SKY — Many parts of the world experienced one heck of a light show from an aurora borealis over the weekend.
An aurora borealis, commonly referred to as the northern lights, is a phenomenon caused when particles from the sun collide with the Earth's atmosphere at speeds up to 45 million mph, . Earth's magnetic fields move these particles toward the two poles, creating one incredible spectacle in the sky.that recent "strong sun activity" resulted in an ongoing show observed from the British Isles through Death Valley National Park in California. People were given front-row seats to dancing streaks of green, red and even purple in the heavens above.
Glacier Bay National Park in Alaska happened to be at the center of it on Sunday. The Last Frontier often experiences the northern lights given its proximity to the North Pole; however, this weekend's show seemed to take it to another level.
