Korean astrophotographer Kwon O Chul recorded the video in March 2013 in Yellowknife, Canada
Aurora Borealis occurs when highly charged electrons from the solar wind collide with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen in the earth's atmosphere
When the sky over Yellowknife, Canada, lit up one cold March night with a spectacular Northern Lights display, Korean photographer Kwon O Chul was on hand to record the breathtaking phenomenon in real time with his camera.
Chul, who describes himself as an astrophotographer, traveled to Canada's rugged Northern Territories south of the Arctic Circle in March 2013 to capture a celestial event known as an aurora substorm - a brief disturbance in the Earth's magnetosphere that causes energy to be released.
Aurora substorms are dramatic, fast-moving and short-lived.
