An aurora, also known as a polar light, is a display of lights in the sky in the Arctic and Antarctic regions, in an area known as the auroral zone.

欧若拉，众所周知也就是极光，它是北极上空的光的种展现形式，同时南极地区有个区域也因极光地区出名。

One of the strongest recorded CMEs, in 1859, caused auroral lights that were seen all the way to the tropics!

有记录来最强烈的日冕物质抛发生在 1859 年，引起的极光直延伸带地区都能看！

Some theorists thought this auroral heating could flow toward the equator to warm the planet's mid-latitudes.

些理论家认为，这种极光加向赤道流动，从而使木星中纬度地区变暖。

Carrington event, most intense geomagnetic storm recorded history peaking on 1 to 2 September 1859 during a solar cycle tent created strong auroral displays that reported globally and caused sparking and even fires in telegraph stations.

卡林顿事件，是有记录来历史上最强烈的地磁风暴，于1859年9月1日至2日在个太阳周期内达顶峰，产生了强大的极光显示，全球均有报道，并导致电报站火花四溅，甚至引发火灾。

Occasionally we get these coronal mass ejections from the Sun and when they hit the Earth's magnetic field then we get these very strong auroral displays.

偶尔太阳会发出日冕物质抛，当它们撞击地球磁场时，就会出现非常强烈的极光现象。

A peculiar light circled around the horizon, white and thin like that often seen over the auroral corona, blending into the blue of the upper sky.

道奇异的光晕环绕着地平线， 如同极光日冕上常见的那样， 又白又细，融入了蔚蓝的高空。

Auroras we can see in polar regions, so magnetic pole in the Northern Hemisphere is pretty much defining where we are at the auroral oval and in the Southern Hemisphere the oval locates pretty much at the same latitudes.

我们在极地地区看极光，因此北半球的磁极基本上决定了我们所在的位置是否处于极光带内， 在南半球， 极光带也大致位于相同的纬度上。
