| On a very basic level the northern lights are quite simple to explain. The lights come at night when the sky is dark. Itââ¬â¢s like a celestial ballet of light dancing across the night sky, with a colour palette green, pink, violet reminiscent of a really cool fashion show from the 1980s. To the locals in Northern Norway, the northern lights are a part of life. In this area the aurora borealis has been, and still is, a fertile source for art, mythology and legends.
In Lofoten we live beneath the Auroral Oval. This is a belt of light that encircles the geomagnetic poles, and here your have the best chance of seeing the Northern Lights. |
