The Northern lights above the Nordic National Quidditch Stadium.
The Northern lights (Latin: Aurora, meaning "sunrise" and Borealis, meaning "northern") [1] are a natural light display in the sky particularly in the high latitude regions, caused by the collision of energetic charged particles with atoms in the high altitude atmosphere.[1]
Northern lights can be seen in the sky above the Nordic National Quidditch Stadium somewhere in the snowy glacier-areas of Scandinavia.[2]
