Throughout history, captivating tales and legends have been woven to unravel the mysteries behind natural phenomena, such as the enchanting Northern Lights. In Viking lore, the shimmering display was attributed to the gleaming weapons wielded by celestial warriors. Alaskan folklore whispered that the lights embodied the spirits of salmon, deer, and other revered creatures. Meanwhile, indigenous tribes shared tales of towering giants inhabiting the North, illuminating the skies with their torches.
