Skies in parts of the northern U.S., Canada and Europe were dazzled with walls of green, pink and yellow this week.
The aurora borealis, otherwise known as the northern lights, have been seen due to a geometric activity, according to KSAT meteorologist Justin Horne.
Videos posted on social media showed that people in Alaska and Washington were able to see the aurora. See a video posted by Glacier Bay National Park in the player above, and see a timelapse video from a resident in Spokane, Washington below.states that people do not have to be directly under the aurora borealis to see it. People can be as far as 1,000 kilometers, or more than 600 miles, away to see the aurora if it is bright and if the conditions are right.
