4. What is harder for the astronomer to measure: A galaxy's redshift (indicating recessional velocity) or its distance from Earth? Why? Explain your answer.

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.

i dont have a visual in front of me, but i can you reason to try to get the right one. the graph should look like this, 0 to 6 there is a spike, 12 to 14 there should be a very low point. slight increase in the graph at 12 to 14, and flat 14 to 18
