Chase the lights in New Zealand, where the colorful aurora is waiting for you

Many people know that the Northern Lights are cool and dazzling, but in fact, the Southern Lights are more girly. If you want to take pictures of the fantasy-colored Aurora sky, coming to New Zealand will definitely give you a different experience❗️ ✨Aurora in the Southern Hemisphere✨ When it comes to the Aurora, most people think of the green elves jumping in the night sky of Northern Europe and North America. The aurora in the southern hemisphere is not well-known, but it is particularly beautiful with its gorgeous pink color. 💫Why are there northern lights in New Zealand💫 Can we see northern lights even if our latitude is not within the Antarctic Circle? It is possible in New Zealand✅ ▪️The Aurora is a subtle magic produced by the collision of solar ions and the Earth's magnetic field, so there is an aurora belt near the magnetic poles. Although the magnetic poles are close to the North and South Poles, they do not completely coincide. New Zealand is located near the magnetic South Pole, so it is lucky enough to have the Aurora despite its low latitude! ▪️The Aurora in New Zealand is different from the Northern Lights. The dazzling green light usually only appears on the distant horizon, while the dancing lights in the night sky are mostly the darker pink-purple light beams in the upper half of the Aurora. Therefore, it is more suitable for long exposure shooting with camera. 🕛Observation time🕛 The best time to view the Aurora in New Zealand is from April to September, and the Aurora can generally be seen between 19:00 and 21:00 in the evening. 🌎Aurora Australis Viewing Conditions🌎 ✅Active aurora index, kp index greater than 4 can be captured by camera, greater than 5-6 can be observed by naked eyes ✅Clear and pure night sky, no ☁️, low humidity and no fog ✅Reduce light pollution, better observation in suburbs far away from the city New Zealand has the world's leading pure night sky, so the viewing conditions are excellent. 🌌Aurora Viewing Guide🌌 🌟The southern part of the South Island is located within the aurora belt.
