Spectacular Aurora Borealis In Norway
Aurora Observatory in Senja Island, Norway has released a breathtaking video which shows what a magical experience the Northern Lights can be. The former term was coined by Galileo all the way back in 1619 and the natural light display occurs when the magnetosphere is sufficiently disturbed by the solar wind. Scandinavia is so famous for its Aurora Borealis, that some people even travel there to propose under the gorgeous lights.

I've seen it once, in 2005 in Rovaniemi. It was a great luck, as it hasn't been a very active Sun year, but I went for a night walk with some other Erasmus students and... suddenly a thin gray line appeared on the sky, then it got wider and greener...and started to play in a most beautiful heavenly way. This was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. Will remember it till the end of my life, hopefully :)
That's a great question! This page has some answers: https://www.quora.com/What-did-medieval-Europeans-think-of-the-Northern-Lights
