means The northern lights — bands of glowing color that ripple across the night sky near the polar regions when charged particles from the sun collide with gases in the upper atmosphere.

from From Latin: Aurora, the Roman goddess of dawn, and borealis, 'northern,' from Boreas, the Greek god of the north wind. The name was popularized in the 1600s by astronomers describing the glow as a kind of false, northern dawn — a poetic label that stuck centuries before anyone understood the solar physics behind it.
