What are these vivid lights?
In brief, the Northern and Southern Lights have the same origin. Auroras occur when fully charged particles burst from the sun, creating a solar wind. This solar wind is drawn to the North and South poles, producing nature's finest light show. Don't expect to see a dancing rainbow with the naked eye though, you'll need a camera. According to Margaret Sonnemann, creator of the Aurora Australis Tasmania Facebook group (50,000+ followers) and the Aurora Chaser's Handbook, you're unlikely to see any colour. "Our eyes are not designed to pick up colour at night. I saw my first aurora about 20 years ago and although I've seen bright colours, it is very rare" said Sonnerman.
