NO!!!! However, you can see the 'Aurora Australis' in the Souther Hemisphere. The words from their Latin roots. Aurora ' Dawn/Light Borealis ' Northern Australis ; Southern . NB Oriental ; Eastern Occidental ; Western.
Aurora Borealis occurs in northern parts of the world. Aurora Australis in southern parts of the world. Borealis is more known because there are more places and people to see them.
Southern Lights
The Aurora Australis are the "Southern Lights" They can be seen in the "low" latitudes of the southern hemisphere.
Aurora Australis is the name of the aurora in Antarctica.
Aurora Australis means "Southern Lights", the opposite to "Aurora Borealis" in the north. (Aurora was the Roman goddess of dawn, (similar to the Greek goddess Eos) and Australis is the Latin word for South.)The Aurora Australis are lights up in the sky that you can only see from the Southern Hemisphere. These silent 'fireworks' you often see on a clear winter night in a variety of shapes and colours! Sometimes the Aurora Australis is over 100-250 km above the ground. The aurora forms huge oval halos of radiation around the earth's magnetic poles.The auroras can disrupt power systems, navigation systems, communications, and more.An Aurora Australis 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 collide with atoms of the oxygen and nitrogen gases in the ionosphere and the particles glow creating curtains of blue, green and magenta. An aurora is sometimes accompanied by a crackling sound.Like the Aurora Borealis (northern lights) but in the southern hemisphere.
Aurora Borealis for the northern ones, and Aurora Australis for the southern ones.
The Aurora Australis, also known as the Southern Lights, is a natural light display in the Earth's southern hemisphere. It occurs when charged particles from the sun interact with the Earth's magnetic field and create stunning displays of light in the sky, similar to the Northern Lights in the northern hemisphere.
