Can you see the Aurora Borealis from the Philippines?

Aurora Borealis means Northern Lights. Philippines is near the equator, so you can not see Northern Lights from the Philippines. IF the Earth tilts more, it may be possible we can see an Aurora Borealis/Australis


Can you see the Aurora Borealis from Argentina or Borneo?

You may be able to see Aurora Australis from Southern Argentina, but probably not from Borneo.You would not be able to see Aurora Borealis from either geography.


Why does Aurora Borealis will not occur in the Philippines?

Because Aurora Borealis a.k.a. the Northern Lights occurs near the north magnetic pole (in northern Canada and so it can only be seen from far north places like Canada. Philippines is near the equator so i doubt it.


How is an Aurora borealis different from an Aurora austral is?

The Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, occurs in the Northern Hemisphere, while the Aurora Australis, or Southern Lights, takes place in the Southern Hemisphere. Both phenomena are caused by charged particles from the sun interacting with the Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere, resulting in beautiful light displays. The specific colors and shapes of the auroras can vary based on atmospheric conditions, but their fundamental nature is the same, differing only by location.


What does aurora borealis do?

The aurora borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, is a natural light display predominantly seen in high-latitude regions around the Arctic. It occurs when charged particles from the sun collide with gases in Earth's atmosphere, exciting those gases and causing them to emit light. This phenomenon creates stunning visual effects, often appearing as colorful waves, curtains, or spirals in the night sky. The aurora is not only a beautiful spectacle but also provides insights into solar activity and Earth's magnetic field.

What is the difference between a Aurora borealis and a Aurora australis?

The Aurora Borealis is in the northen hemisphere at the north pole. However the Aurora Australis is in the southern hemisphere at the south pole. That is the only difference in them; they are both formed in the same way. They are both polar lights. One is the Aurora Borealis, the northern lights and the Aurora Australis, the southern lights. They are on the different poles on the earth, other than that, they are the same. Borealis is near the North Pole. Australis is near the South pole. The Aurora Borealis is at the north magnetic pole: the Aurora Australis is at the south magnetic pole. That's the only difference. They are both really the same thing but are visible from different places in the world. The aurora borealis can be seen in Northern England and in Scotland sometime, normally in summer and spring. The aurora austalis can be seen from places like Australia and New Zealand. Another difference is that the aurora borealis are brighter that the aurora austalis


Are there aurora borealis in California?

Only rarely, but it has happened.

How is an Aurora borealis different fram an Aurora austrails?

They differ only in their location. Borealis = northern hemisphere, Australis = southern hemisphere. Both are caused by incoming energetic particles from our Sun exciting the air molecules.

When will the Aurora Borealis appear in US?

I don't will ever appear in the U.S. It only happens once a year in Alaska.


Is the Aurora Borealis caused by humans or nature?

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.


Where do you see Auroras?

In fact you get best ones in Russia, Canada, Alaska, Greenland, Finland and so on but you only see Aurora Borealis in Northern Hemisphere, in South Hemisphere get Aurora Australis.

Was mawson's ship the Aurora named after the Aurora australis?

Highly unlikely. The SY Aurora was built in 1876 in Glasgow, Scotland as a whaling ship in the northern seas. Douglas Mawson only acquired the ship in 1910 and she had already been named. If it was named after a "polar light" it would have been the Aurora Borealis.


Does aurora borealis influence compass needles?

Scientists observed disruption of a the magnetic needle of a compass by the electromagnetic interference by Aurora Borealis which reflected perfect direction that coincided with the view of the phenomena. It was concluded this would only happen if electric currents were setting from south to north in the earth under the needle, or from north to south in space above it.
