A recently shared image on Reddit showing the northern lights in Kerala’s sky has sparked amusement among netizens. The edited image, featuring lines scribbled across the sky, garnered humorous comments and was later removed by the user. Aurora lights, also known as aurora borealis or aurora australis, are typically visible near the poles, making it highly unlikely to witness them in the southern part of India. Social media users responded with witty remarks, comparing the image to visual effects from movies and questioning its authenticity. The post also prompted explanations about the formation of auroras due to charged particles colliding with atoms in the Earth’s magnetosphere, resulting in the vibrant colors. Despite the humor surrounding the image, it serves as a reminder of the awe-inspiring beauty of auroras, which are commonly witnessed in countries located near the Earth’s poles.
