It's Wrong!
The Southern lights are scientifically called Aurora Australis. This natural phenomenon occurs in the Southern Hemisphere, similar to the Northern lights (Aurora Borealis) in the Northern Hemisphere. The lights are caused by the interaction of charged particles from the sun with the Earth's magnetic field, creating colorful displays of light in the sky.
