"Auroras that occur in the northern hemisphere are called ‘Aurora Borealis’
or ‘northern lights’ and auroras that occur in the southern hempishere are
called ‘Aurora Australis’ or ‘southern lights’ and auroras that occur in
La Manzanilla are called 'Aurora La Manzanilla' or 'sunset'

In 1859 there was a coronal mass ejection (love that term) that was so intense
you could see the aurora from the tropics
