1. I think "meteorology" is more appropriate than "astronomy" since it's a phenomenon that occurs in the earth's atmosphere.

astronomy
the study of objects and matter *outside the earth's atmosphere*
[my emphasis]

meteorology
a science that deals with the atmosphere and its phenomena and especially with weather and weather forecasting

Wp article refers to it as a meteorological phenomenon:
"Modern style guides recommend that the names of meteorological phenomena, such as aurora borealis, be uncapitalized."


2. Northern --> northern


3. Adding 南極光.
Diff:
- 北極光 北极光 [bei3 ji2 guang1] /Northern lights/aurora borealis/
+ 北極光 北极光 [bei3 ji2 guang1] /northern lights/aurora borealis/
+ 南極光 南极光 [nan2 ji2 guang1] /southern lights/aurora australis/
- 極光 极光 [ji2 guang1] /aurora (astronomy)/
+ 極光 极光 [ji2 guang1] /aurora (meteorology)/
