Northern lights in Poland. A light scene over Poland through the eyes of 24 reporters

On Sunday night into Monday, the northern lights will once again appear in the night sky. As Karol Wojcicki, famous astronomer and author of the blog “With Your Head in the Stars,” said on Sunday afternoon, there were excellent conditions for observing the aurora borealis — all over Poland.

At Kontakt 24 we received many beautiful photos and recordings of the aurora borealis illuminating the sky. They were caught in Pomerania and in the southern regions of the country – Lesser Poland and Podkarpacie. 24 reporters were happy with the colors of the aurora borealis, as the sky in some areas was filled with shades of pink, purple and red.

The aurora borealis is a light phenomenon that occurs mainly near the North and South Poles. The scientific name for the aurora borealis is Northern lights Within the Arctic and Southern Dawn Near the South Pole.

This phenomenon occurs when energetic gas particles sent by the Sun hit the Earth’s upper atmosphere at high speeds (up to 72 million kilometers per hour). The planet is protected from “attack” by its magnetic field. It redirects molecules toward the north and south poles, and the molecules interact with gases in our atmosphere.
