CMEs carregam átomos eletricamente carregados conhecidos como íons e quando colidem com a magnetosfera da Terra podem causar tempestades geomagnéticas. Os íons vão interagir com gases na atmosfera da Terra e emitir energia que assume a forma de luz, e essa luz é o que conhecemos como aurora boreal, ou aurora austral no Hemisfério Sul.
