They'd be the Southern Lights, not northern.
No, the aurora borealis (northern lights) occur near the North Pole. In Antarctica, the corresponding phenomenon is called the aurora australis (southern lights) due to its location in the Southern Hemisphere.
The Northern Lights are called so because they are predominantly seen in the northern hemisphere, such as in countries like Norway, Finland, and Canada. The scientific term for Northern Lights is "Aurora Borealis."
Aurora Borealis
The glowing atmospheric lights seen at the polar regions are called auroras. They are caused by the interaction between the solar wind and the Earth's magnetic field, which leads to the emission of light in the upper atmosphere. In the Northern Hemisphere, they are called aurora borealis or northern lights, while in the Southern Hemisphere, they are called aurora australis or southern lights.
Ionization in the stratosphere. When the solar winds from the sun makes contact with Earth's magnetic field, the result is the Northern and Southern Lights. The Northern Lights are called "aurora borealis," Aurora because that was the name of the roman goddess of dawn and, borealis is from the Greek [Boreas,] meaning "north wind." The Southern Lights are called "aurora australis," Australis is the Latin word for "of the south."
There are no northern lights in Antarctica. However, the southern lights -- Aurora Australis -- are visible from the continent.

Antarctica. (excluding the northern lights)
The Southern Lights- like the Northern Lights, but in the South.
Aurora are generated when magnetic storms from the sun hit the earth's atmosphere and interact with it. Both polar regions experience aurora: Aurora Australis occurs in the Southern Hemisphere, and Aurora Borealis occurs in the Northern Hemisphere.
yes
No - there are also Southern Lights, called the Aurora Australis.
The Northern Lights can also be called the Aurora Borealis, the Dance of the Spirits, or the Heavenly Dance.
Aurora Borealis also called the Northern Lights.
The Northern Lights are called so because they are predominantly seen in the northern hemisphere, such as in countries like Norway, Finland, and Canada. The scientific term for Northern Lights is "Aurora Borealis."
Antarctica has no land in the northern hemisphere.
No, Antarctica is in the Antarctic. The Antarctic is in the southern hemisphere and the Arctic is in the northern hemisphere. Collectively though, they are called the poles.
