The Northern Lights a Short Production

Picture yourself as an Inuit.

[Enter Inuit]

 Cold. Fluffy fur around your head. Fingers frozen solid. All of a sudden - BAM! The gods have decended from above. You ask your shocked Inuit self, "What is this wonderous display of colors overhead?" Well we have the answers for you!

[Intro theme music]

Some think the Northern Lights were created with the Earth, some think it was with the atmosphere, and some think it's where gods wrath meets earth.

Don't worry little Inuit - the gods are not angry with you.

[Seventies Disco music starts to play. Inuit costume change into irredecent pants]

The Northern Lights occur when electrons from solar wind [intro glitter cannon] interact with particles in the atmosphere. [Drop disco lights] Note the blue and purple colors.

These first lights were formed when the nitrogen in the atmosphere came about. This lasted until after the cyanobacteria started photosynthesizing. 

After the oxygen increases in the atmosphere, the colors changed to red and green.

[Drop second disco light]

As you can see, little inuit, certain particles produce different colors at different times.

The first time any cool cat with the ability to write saw these groovy thangs was 1314 years ago.
So you see little inuit no need to fret its all psychedelic and natural.
Peace!
