Volcanic eruptions

Eclipses
-
Meteor showers
-
Huge plasma eruptions from the Sun
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The correct answer is "Huge plasma eruptions from the Sun". A coronal mass ejection (CME) is a significant release of plasma and magnetic field from the solar corona. When CMEs travel toward Earth, they interact with the planet's magnetic field, enhancing the auroras. This interaction can lead to more vibrant and widespread displays of the northern and southern lights.
