🌌 AURORA COLORS – The Science Behind the Lights

When you see an aurora dancing across the sky, you’re not just watching a light show—you’re witnessing the story of Earth’s atmosphere told through colors. Each shade appears at a different height and comes from a different atmospheric gas. Here’s your quick guide:

🔴 Red
• Appears above 150 miles (240 km).
• Shows up during intense solar activity where oxygen is very limited.

💚 Green
• The most common aurora color.
• Forms up to 150 miles (240 km) high.
• Caused by excited oxygen atoms.

💜 Purple / Violet
• Seen above 60 miles (96 km).
• Created by high concentrations of nitrogen.

🔵 Blue
• One of the rarest aurora colors.
• Appears below 60 miles (96 km).
• Also linked to nitrogen in lower layers of the atmosphere.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce, thanks to the generous grant from the Weyerhaeuser Giving Fund, our Booster Club organization has successfully acquired and installed a beautiful NEW scoreboard now located behind center field! 🎉

This incredible support has enabled us to further our mission ensuring a better softball experience for our players and Hornet fans! 🥎♥️

We couldn't be more grateful for Weyerhaeuser’s recurring contributions and to show our appreciation, we proudly honored Weyerhaeuser by including their name on the scoreboard to represent their dedication to supporting the communities they serve.
