Answer:
Due to the dense atmosphere
The magnetic field of the earth
Explanation:

A solar wind is a burst of energetic particles from the sun which are made up electrons, ions, etc.. They travel at a very high velocity.
- The magnetic field of the earth is able to deflect these charged particles away.
- In areas such as the pole, the interact with the atmosphere to produce very stunning auroras.
