As Baggaley explains, the distinct green color of the aurora is due to the oxygen ions in the upper atmosphere created by the collision of oxygen molecules with charged particles coming from the Sun.
As a matter of fact, the Perseid meteor shower — which has already begun and will peak on August 13 — is a prime example of a green meter. Bits of the comet Swift-Tuttle that remain in space from its journey almost a century ago, enter the Earth's atmosphere at speed of 37 miles an hour and leave a similar green trail.
