According to the NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center, the best chances to catch the light are especially around midnight, when geomagnetic activity tends to intensify. These vibrant displays are caused by charged particles from the sun colliding with gases in Earth's atmosphere. These colors depend on the altitude and types of gases involved; for instance, red lights occur above 120 miles up due to oxygen atoms.
