The northern lights, also known as aurora borealis, occur in the Earth's atmosphere, primarily in the polar regions. They are caused by collisions between electrically charged particles from the sun entering the Earth's atmosphere and gases such as oxygen and nitrogen.
You don't often see auroras near the equator because the lights occur above the magnetic poles, so the Northern Lights are more often seen from northern latitudes in Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Northern Europe and Russia, and Alaska in the US. If the aurora is very spectacular it can be seen closer to the equator, but hugely spectacular auroras don't occur very often.
No, the Northern Lights occur in the higher layers of the Earth's atmosphere, specifically in the thermosphere. The light displays are caused by solar particles interacting with gases in the atmosphere, leading to a stunning display of colors in the sky.
They are the same. They simply occur in different hemispheres. The southern lights are less well known because there is less inhabited land around the south pole, where you would see the southern lights
They do not occur in South Dakota.
The term for the colorful lights that occur in the atmosphere above the earth's northern geomagnetic pole is called the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights. These lights are a natural phenomenon caused by the interaction between the solar wind and Earth's magnetic field.

The Northern Lights, or Aurora Borealis, occur in the thermosphere and exosphere layers of Earth's atmosphere. They are typically observed between 60 and 400 kilometers above the Earth's surface. The stratosphere and troposphere layers do not contain the Northern Lights.

You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.You can have a meteor on any day and the northern lights can occur on any day, so it is hard to predict when both will happen on the same day.
the thing is gold ok if i wonrg tell me other thing

The Northern Lights occur above the earth's magnetic pole, which moves around the polar regions. Sometimes this happens over the ocean. It is often in the north of Canada, though it can be seen for hundreds of miles south of that. The land is frozen tundra.
They do not occur in South Dakota.
