Over the past decade, technology has improved and reached new heights. Artificial intelligence’s capabilities have increased tenfold. Recently, many large space companies like NASA, SpaceX, and others have started integrating AI into the space industry. Space exploration has always been constrained by distance.

I started wondering why they are visible in New England all of a sudden. What is causing this to happen? Most people just see the Northern Lights as a beautiful colorful phenomenon that occurs in the atmosphere and is visible in arctic regions of our planet. There is a lot more to them than just bein
