北极光通常不会到达这么远的南方。然而，在太阳巨大的活动区3664中，磁场混乱产生了一次表面爆炸，将电子、质子和更大质量的带电原子核送入太阳系。几天后，日冕物质抛射（CME）影响了地球，并引发了极光，据报道，极光距离地球的南北两极异常遥远。自由的天空表演可能还没有结束——富含太阳黑子的AR3664已经喷射出更多的日冕物质抛射，这些日冕物质抛射可能会在今晚或明天影响地球。不过，这个活跃区域现在靠近太阳的边缘，很快就会旋转离开地球。图为昨晚早些时候在波兰Racibórz用6秒曝光捕捉到的红色极光。摄影师的朋友第一次看到极光，在远处也可以看到美丽多彩的夜空。画廊：来自太阳活动区3664的全球极光

Northern lights don't usually reach this far south. Magnetic chaos in the Sun's huge Active Region 3664, however, produced a surface explosion that sent a burst of electrons, protons, and more massive, charged nuclei into the Solar System. A few days later, that coronal mass ejection (CME) impacted the Earth and triggered auroras that are being reported unusually far from our planet's north and south poles. The free sky show might not be over -- the sunspot rich AR3664 has ejected even more CMEs that might also impact the Earth tonight or tomorrow. That active region is now near the Sun's edge, though, and will soon be rotating away from the Earth. Pictured, a red and rayed aurora was captured in a single 6-second exposure from Racibórz, Poland early last night. The photographer's friend, seeing an aurora for the first time, is visible in the distance also taking images of the beautifully colorful nighttime sky.
