No, auroras are the result of Solar wind interacting with the Ionosphere. Solar flares can intensify an aurora however.
Auroras are caused by solar wind particles interacting with Earth's magnetic field, not solar flares directly. Solar flares can cause an increase in solar wind activity, which can lead to more intense auroras.
Magnetic storms unleashed by solar flares can cause auroras, but all solar flares don't cause auroras.
Yes, solar flares can cause the northern lights, also known as auroras. When a solar flare occurs on the sun, it releases charged particles into space that can interact with Earth's magnetic field, leading to the spectacular light show of the auroras in the polar regions.
Yes, Jupiter's magnetic field can trigger powerful auroras in its atmosphere visible as far as Earth. These phenomena are not quite the same as solar flares but are visible as bright spots of light in Jupiter's atmosphere.
They could see solar flares during total solar eclipses. They could probably not see them on the surface of the sun....but they could of seen the Borialis' they could probably not see them on the surface of the sun....but they could of seen the Borialis'
is it false that auroras are the result of energy from solar flares

Solar flares can disrupt radio communications, GPS systems, and power grids on Earth. They can also pose a hazard to astronauts in space, as they can increase radiation levels. Additionally, solar flares can create stunning displays of auroras in the Earth's atmosphere.
Very little happens to people after a solar flare. Solar flares are a regular occurrence. The charged particles they emit can disrupt radio signals and also increase the auroras.
Sunspots are areas of intense magnetic activity on the sun's surface that can lead to solar flares, which are bursts of energy. When solar flares interact with the Earth's atmosphere, they can cause disturbances in the magnetosphere, leading to the northern lights, also known as auroras. Solar winds, which are streams of charged particles released by the sun, can intensify the effect of these disturbances and contribute to the visibility and frequency of the northern lights.
No. There will be solar flares in 2012 - there are flares every year, even the last couple of years during the depth of the deepest solar minimum in the last century - but solar flares do not "attack the Earth". It is possible that a massive solar flare could cause communications outages, or damage satellites, or cause spectacular auroras - but that could happen ANY time. There were a few satellites damaged by solar flares during the last solar max, in 2002, but the doom-sayers were wrong about that one, too.
