Can you see Auroras everywhere?
The aurorae are best visible from the Arctic and Antarctic Circles - and/or locations close to them. It's very rare to see the aurorae near the equator or latitudes as far south(or north) as say, Los Angeles.
Do Auroras occur near sunspots?

When were the Auroras discovered?
The auroras are the result of phenomena that have been going on since early in the formation of the atmosphere around the planet earth - consequently the first prehistoric travelers to the Arctic and near-arctic regions undoubtedly saw and marveled at them.
What are polar constellations?
They are the constellations at the celestial north & south poles - Ursa Minor (the little bear) is at the celestial North Pole and the Southern Cross is a constellation near the celestial South Pole.
Why do satellite dishes face south?
Most communication satellites orbit at or near the equator. In the northern hemisphere this is obviously to the south. In the southern hemisphere it is to the north, so the dishes would point north.
Do Auroras only show in the north?
No, near the south pole there are lights as well.
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.
Where on earth are you most likely to see auroras in the sky?
The aurora borealis and aurora australis occur in the thermosphere.
What light seen at the north pole and south pole when solar wind collides with earth atmosphere?
The "Northern Lights" (or Aurora Borealis) are seen near the North Pole. The "Southern Lights" (or Aurora Australis) are seen near the South Pole. For more information on Auroras, see the related link included.

Is it mostly hills or plains in north America?
It varies, in the mid-west, it is very flat, but near South Dakota it becomes very hilly.
Explain why auroras are seen mostly near the north pole and south pole?
An Aurora Australis or an Aurora Borealis occurs when streams of particles from the sun's solar winds hit the earth's atmosphere at an angle (as can only happen at the poles). These particles interact with the edges of the earth's magnetic field and when they collide with the gases in the ionosphere, the particles glow creating curtains of blue, green and magenta. An aurora is sometimes accompanied by a crackling sound. The Aurora Australis appears around Antarctica and the Aurora Borealis appears around the Arctic.
Why Auroras do not happened near equator?
The auroras that are experienced near the polar regions occur because of the strength of the earth's magnetic field. The magnetic field is not very strong at the equator.
Is the arctic near the north pole or the south pole?
The arctic is near the North Pole.
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.
