From how far would the northern lights be visible? Say, you're standing on Mars looking at it
through a telescope. Would Earth light up with a vague greenish tint?

The Hubble Space Telescope has observed aurorae on Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune; so yes,
you could see the Northern Lights from other planets if it's bright enough.

i wonder if any planets in other systems have a similar phenomena. i figure if one of the ones
around here did i'd have heard about it

Any planetoid body with an atmosphere orbiting a star can produce an aurora.

Magnets, how do they work?

A beautiful sight, to be sure. But to be honest? I'd rather travel to Alaska and see the goddamn
thing up close. Or about as close as I could get.
