That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The correct answer is "Aurora borealis". The Northern Lights, also known as Aurora borealis, are a natural light display that occurs in the polar regions. This phenomenon is caused by the interaction between charged particles from the sun and the Earth's magnetic field. The lights are typically seen in the northern hemisphere, but can also occur in the southern hemisphere, where they are known as the Southern Lights or Aurora australis.
