Rare Northern lights witnessed in Ladakh; not an 'air glow', confirms Hanle sources
The colourful “curtains” of dazzling aurora light are actually billions of charged particles moving into space at ultra-high speeds, some reaching up to 3 million kilometres per hour. When they arrive in the direction of Earth, they cause a disturbance in the Earth's magnetic field and enable us to see the aurora lights. Key Points
