Due to a solar storm, auroras could be seen across the skies of many portions of the United States, which ranged from Maine and California to even Florida.
Auroras are caused by solar winds entering the Earth's atmosphere at high speeds, the result of which is a display of dynamic, stunning lights that are said to resemble curtains, rays, spirals, or flickers that cover the entire sky.
The recent auras have captivated countless people, with Google searches for 'northern lights forecast' increasing by 2333 percent over the last month and 'when to see northern lights' catapulting by a massive 6533 percent in the past week.
