Aurora Borealis (Northern Lights)
Celestial fireworks caused by caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere
• Auroras are caused by increased solar activity
• This follows a predictable cycle and we will see significant activity in the next couple of years
Step 1: Make KML from data
Provide a live map of current & predicted solar activity with additional playback functionality
Step 4: Build Aurora Orrery
Build several full globes with LED auroras
Construct an orrery to show relationship between solar flares and auroras on multiple planets
