@SHIFTHDProduction Auroras are caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the atmosphere

Very nice but I have a question since i've never actually seen one in person(yet). Why is it that you cannot find a video on youtube of the Aurora in real-time. Seems like every video I find is a time-lapse. Is it not visible to the naked eye? I never understood this.

@ApexIXMR Since human eyes are extraordinarily sophisticated organs, you can see the northern lights by the naked eyes. However, the actual northern light is too dark to be captured by the normal video camera, except when the aurora breaks up or you use the special camera. This is one reason why there is no (very few) real-time video of aurora. The biggest reason for me is that the time-lapse photography can make the aurora image as a beautiful art.

The word ARYa means GREAT so it is perfect that you misspelled January as JanurARY.
Some things are just meant to be.
