Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive study of the aurora borealis, commonly called the northern lights and its counterpart to the south, the aurora australis or southern lights. The author begins with a historical overview of how our understanding of the aurora has progressed, from early superstitious awe to modern scientific investigation. The book then proceeds to examine the different forms, colors, intensity of light, and frequency of auroras. There is also an examination of the aurora's relationship with meteorological phenomena, such as the weather, clouds, and atmospheric electricity. In addition, this book investigates the intriguing correlations between the aurora and terrestrial magnetism, as well as telluric currents, cosmic phenomena, and the sun. Several theories are presented to explain these correlations, including cosmic, optical, magnetic, and electrical theories. Throughout this extensive study, the author draws upon the observations of numerous scientists to support the variety of forms and characteristics of the aurora. This book illuminates this awe-inspiring natural phenomenon in great detail, making it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to learn more about the wonders of the aurora.
