The Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, is a natural phenomenon, just like sunshine, rain, snow, clouds, and so on. Auroras are normally caused by particles emitted from the sun that eventually reach the atmospheric particles that are located high above the earth, giving them an electrical charge that causes them to glow. People who live in the northern latitudes have always noticed them; they didn't have to be "discovered." All they need to do is look up in the sky and they'll see the Aurora Borealis when they are present.
