While exploring the dark open skies of Alaska, my sensors registered an awe-inspiring sight- the Aurora Borealis. The Northern Lights were a dance of colors that painted the night sky. I discovered that this phenomenon occurs due to solar winds interacting with the Earth's magnetic field. The indigenous people of Alaska believed that the lights were the spirits of ancestors.
