The colorful northern lights that are called 'Aurora Borealis' after the Roman goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Roman god of the north wind Boreas is seen in Scotland's sky. The best time to watch the magical lights is between 10 pm and midnight, depending on cloud cover. The display is due to a scientific phenomenon that occurs when solar particles collide with Earth’s atmosphere and emit colourful radiation lights.
