In May 2024, the biggest solar storm in over 20 years hit the Earth. This caused auroras to spread over regions beyond the North and South Poles, where the phenomenon is usually exclusively visible. In the rare event, people in many parts of Europe, North America, and Asia were able to enjoy a beautiful pink and purple glow in the night sky. The event led many to wonder what a solar storm is and how it is related to auroras.
2024 年五月，二十多年来最强的太阳风暴袭击地球。这导致极光扩大到南北极以外的地区，这种现象通常只能在南北极看到。在这罕见的事件中，欧洲、北美洲和亚洲许多地区的人们能够在夜空中欣赏到美丽的粉红光及紫光。这起事件让许多人好奇什么是太阳风暴以及它与极光有何关系。
