solar activity and auroras

Solar activity refers to the various phenomena occurring on the Sun's surface, such as sunspots, solar flares, and coronal mass ejections. These events release energy and charged particles into space, which can affect Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere. Auroras, often known as the Northern and Southern Lights, are natural light displays that occur in the polar regions when these charged particles from the Sun interact with Earth's magnetosphere.
