planet like venus which has no magnetic field, have very irregular aurora.. unlike Earth, Jupiter, or Saturn, which have an intrinsic magnetic dipole field, have aurora in the shape of oval shaped crowns of light on both hemispheres. When the magnetic field of a planet is not aligned with the rotational axis, we get a very distorted auroral oval which might be near the equator, like on Uranus and Neptune. Some of the larger moons of the outer planets are also big enough to have an atmosphere, and some have a magnetic field. They are usually protected from the solar wind by the magnetosphere of the planet that they orbit, but since that magnetosphere also contains energetic particles, some of these moons also have aurorae.

∙ 12y agoNot aurora produced as the ones on Earth, Jupiter, Saturn Uranus etc. (Those planets have strong magnetic fields that accelerate solar particles towards their magnetic poles and cause aurora when the particles ionize molecules in the upper atmospheres).
Some ultraviolet bright spots have been seen since 1982, see the article in the link below.

- spectra in radio and UV by Voyager 2 in 1986
- images and spectres in UV by the Hubble Space Telescope in 1998 and 2011

Do solar flares from the sun cause auroras near earths poles?
Magnetic storms unleashed by solar flares can cause auroras, but all solar flares don't cause auroras.
What can cause auroras near earth poles?
Solar winds are the out-of-this-world event that cause auroras to appear on earth. Auroras can happen near both the north and the south poles.
Are auroras the result of solar flares?
No, auroras are the result of Solar wind interacting with the Ionosphere. Solar flares can intensify an aurora however.
Auroras are the result of energy from solar flares?
No
There are no auroras on Venus because it?
No, as it has no magnetic field.
What chariteristics of Venuss atmosphere make the planet so harsh?
error
How do Auroras develop?
Auroras occur in the mesospere.
How do auroras appear in the night sky?
Auroras appears in the night sky by atoms and molecules. Auroras is lights in the sky.
When was The Auroras of Autumn created?
The Auroras of Autumn was created in 1950-09.
How are sun dogs different to auroras?
Sun dogs are formed differently to auroras
What is the importance of auroras?
auroras are the northern lights, and that is a very important event in Alaska
What does a planet need in order to have Auroras?
A planet needs to have a magnetic field in order to have auroras.
Which can cause auroras and disrupt satellite transmission?
Which can cause auroras and disrupt satellite transmission?
The Auroras forms where?
the Auroras form in the earths poles which is south pole and north pole.
What auroras produced by?
Auroras are produced by interactions among thermospheric gases and free electrons
Auroras are produced by .?
Auroras are produced by interactions among thermospheric gases and free electrons
What causes auroras on the moon?
The moon has no atmosphere, so it has no auroras. Auroras need oxygen and nitrogen atoms to emit light when they are ionized when struck by solar wind particles.
