A light phenomenon observed in the upper layer of the atmosphere close to the magnetic poles.

It appears in the higher latitudes, mostly into the polar circles. However, in favourable conditions it can be seen as far as the 50 degrees latitude North or South.

In the northern hemisphere the northen lights are called by its Latin name Aurora Borealis whereas the lights in the southern hemisphere are called Aurora Australis.

Aurora is one of the seven nature wonders. It appears mostly within the polar circles in the areas around Earth's magnetic poles.

Tromsø is located in the centre of such an area and together with its scenery and easy flight connections it provides the best conditions to hunt the northern lights.

Aurora is a light spectacle appearing on a night sky in shapes of curtains, ribbons, arches and rays coming down vertically above the observers' heads. One can interpret some of her appearances as snakes, dragons or angels.
Sometimes it is static, at other times it dances on the sky with unbelievable speeds, changing shapes and colours. Most often it is fluorescent green, sometimes with a touch of pink, purple, violet and blue. It is best to experience it in a dark place, far from city lights and necessarily on a clear sky.
