The Earth's magnetic field traps the charged particles which are hurled at the Earth by the Sun during solar wind activity. When these charged particles react with the gases in our atmosphere, the gases begin to glow. These aurorae, or glowing gases, are seen in the Arctic Circle and the Antarctic Circle. – Jarðarinnar magnetfelt fangar løddu bitlarnar, sum sólin blakar móti jørðini, tá sólarvindar blæsa. Tá hesir løddu bitlar blandast við gassini í okkara atmosferu, byrja gassini at gløða. Hesi ljós, ella gløðani gass, eru at síggja í norðurpóls
og suðurpóls-kringunum.
