During the 1960's and 1970's, the Apollo spacecraft took humans to the moon in 3 days. Traveling to Mars requires a trip of about 2 astronomical units in total. How long would this trip take, traveling at the same speed as to the moon?

the aurora is formed when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare penetrate the earth's magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. these collisions result in countless little bursts of light, called photons, which make up the aurora.

auroras are generated by charged solar particles hitting molecules in earth's atmosphere. this usually happens in high latitudes, because our planet’s magnetic field tends to funnel these particles toward the poles. that’s why it can be experienced in northern ohio.
