The Southern Lights In New Zealand

A man is looking at the Aurora Australis, also known as the Southern Lights, as it is glowing on the horizon over the waters of Lake Ellesmere on the outskirts of Christchurch, New Zealand, on August 12, 2024. The Southern Lights are a natural phenomenon of vibrant natural lights. They are caused by solar activity, particularly a coronal mass ejection that sends charged particles and gas into space. It typically takes these particles three days to reach the magnetic field lines at the north and south poles before entering the atmosphere. Upon entering, the energy and particles are combining with atmospheric gases to create a spectrum of colored lights in the sky. (Photo by Sanka Vidanagama/NurPhoto)
