HOW DO AURORAS APPEAR IN NATURE?

According to NASA, “auroras are colorful, dynamic, and often visually delicate displays of an intricate dance of particles and magnetism between the Sun and Earth called space weather. When energetic particles from space collide with atoms and molecules in the atmosphere, they can cause the colorful glow that we call auroras.”

“An aurora can appear in a variety of colors, from an eerie green to blue and purple to pink and red. When particles from space bombard gases in the atmosphere, they can give the atoms and molecules of the gases extra energy that’s released as tiny specks of light.”

“Oxygen excited to different energy levels can produce green and red. Green occurs roughly between 60 to 120 miles (100-200 km) altitude, and red occurs above 120 miles (200 km). Excited nitrogen gas from about 60 to 120 miles (100-200 km) glows blue. Depending on the type and energy of the particle it is interacting with, nitrogen can give off both pink and blue light. If it is below about 60 miles (100 km), it gives the lower edge of the aurora a reddish-purple to pink glow.”

History’s most famous blue sapphire engagement is Princess Diana’s—given by Prince Charles when he proposed in 1981. According to Garrard, “Diana chose her sapphire engagement ring […] in 1981. Encircled by a halo of diamonds set in 18 [k]arat white gold, the deep, intense blue of the 12-carat oval Ceylon sapphire is magnificent, enhanced by its exceptional lustre. Displaying the exquisite taste for which she became so famous during her life as a royal, as soon as Diana stepped out with her Prince to announce their engagement – dressed in a blue suit to match her sapphire – the ring became a worldwide sensation.”
