However, was there ever a time in the 19th century where the skies at latitudes nearer the Equator were unusually lit up by the tango of charged particles thrown from the sun into the earth's magnetic field?This might come as a surprise to some, but there was a period in 1859 where aurora could have been seen in the world's tropical regions - and this is all due to what is known today as the Carrington Event.
Basically, what happened here is that a giant ejection of charged particles from the sun slammed into the earth's magnetic field. This caused extremely bright auroras further south than anywhere recorded up to this point.
