Aurora Borealis comes in view;
Aurora comes in view.

And I ran, I ran so far away.
I just ran, I ran all night and day.
I couldn't get away.

its visible radiation occuring in the thermosphere due in part of radiation from the sun and the ozone layer having a reaction together. It occurs at the poles since thats where te magnetic field of the earth is recessed enough for radiation to seep low enough to hit ozone
