i remember hearing somewhere (not really sure where) that the atmosphere can reflect certain things off of it and it shows up miles away from where it originally started.

and like i  said it was a GUESS.

I'd bet wherever you heard that they where talking about radio waves and not visible light.

There is some visually reflective property to the atmosphere, like when you can see the moon during the day. However northern lights are a completely different phenomenon.

I give for an example the following excerpt from the BBC.  Behold Stephen Fry messing with comedians heads.

I captured this pics last evening driving north on a dark section of Hwy 287,around 4500 ft elevation, in SE of Colorado. I've seen aurora many times driving through Canada, but always green not red, and never at this latitude (38.5N).
