ʻO ka Northern Lights, i ʻike ʻia ʻo ka holaKahua ʻO Borealis, i hoʻomālamalama i ka lani ma luna ʻEsetonia a me ka hapa nui o ʻEulopa akau i ka pule i hala.
E ʻike ʻia ka ʻike ʻana o nā kukui ʻākau mai ka Honua a hiki i ka makahiki 2025. Ua haʻi ʻo Estonian astronomer Tõnu Viik i kēia, me ka ʻike ʻana ua kū like ia me ka hiki ʻana o ka lā i ka piko o kāna pōʻai hana 22 makahiki i kēia manawa.
ʻIke ʻia nā kukui ma ka ʻākau magnetic (Northern Lights/Aurora Borealis) a me nā pole hema (Southern Lights/Aurora Australis) ke nānā ʻia mai ka Honua. ʻOiai ke hōʻike nei lākou i ka nani kamahaʻo, hiki i ka hana keu ke lilo i mea paʻakikī i nā kānaka.
Aia ke kala o ka aurora i ke kiʻekiʻe o ka makani lā e pā ana i ka lewa o ka honua. ʻIke loa ʻia ʻo Auroras i ka pūnāwai a me ke kauwela ma muli o ke ao māmā. Ma muli o ka pili ʻana i ka hana a ka Lā, ʻaʻole ʻike nā mea nānā i nā kukui i kēlā me kēia pō māmā.
Nui nā mākaʻikaʻi e hele i nā wahi kokoke i nā polar zones, e like me Scandinavia, Kanaka, ʻĀina Hau, a me Antarctica, e ʻike i kēia mau hiʻohiʻona kukui kūlohelohe. Ua lilo ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻo Aurora i ʻoihana kaulana, me ka poʻe huakaʻi e ʻimi nei i ka manawa e ʻike ai i nā kala a me nā hiʻohiʻona nani o auroras i ka lewa pō. Ua kōkua kēia mākaʻikaʻi i ka hoʻokele waiwai o kēia mau wahi a ua alakaʻi i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā huakaʻi kūikawā a me nā hale noho no nā mea hoihoi aurora.
He aha e lawe ʻia mai kēia ʻatikala:
- Ma muli o ka pili ʻana i ka hana a ka Lā, ʻaʻole ʻike nā mea nānā i nā kukui i kēlā me kēia pō māmā.
- Aia ke kala o ka aurora i ke kiʻekiʻe o ka makani lā e pā ana i ka lewa o ka honua.
- Ua kōkua kēia mākaʻikaʻi i ka hoʻokele waiwai o kēia mau wahi a ua alakaʻi i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā huakaʻi kūikawā a me nā hale noho no ka poʻe hoihoi aurora.
