Aurora was observed around the world as a powerful 'geomagnetic storm' caused by an explosion on the sun's surface entered Earth.

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration issued a geomagnetic storm watch earlier this week after a solar flare was detected.

As a result of this phenomenon, auroras were observed in the United Kingdom and Germany, as well as in the southern, midwestern, and northern California of the United States.

Geomagnetic storms occur a few days after the solar explosion, causing an aurora phenomenon that collides with the atmosphere and emits light.

It can also interfere with the operation of telecommunications, power grids, navigation, radios, and satellites.

Due to the influence of this geomagnetic storm, aurora can be seen in the mid-latitude, not the Arctic.
