Both are electromagnetic waves

Explanation:

Both microwaves and light waves form a part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Electromagnetic waves are produced as a result of oscillating magnetic and electric fields. when arranged in order of frequencies and wavelengths they form the electromagnetic spectrum.

this would be about 43%

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.
