How to add auroral boundaries over LBHS plot

I am just trying to figure put How to add aurora boundaries over LBHS plot. Any assistance will be appreciated.

If you know the coordinates of an auroral oval boundary, you may overlay the boundary as a line, e.g.:

coords = {'lat': np.ones((50,))*50., 'lon': np.linspace(0, 49, 50), 'height': 110.}
cs = 'GEO'
panel.overlay_line(coords=coords, cs=cs, ANY_KEYWORDS_IN_MPL_PLOT)

thank you for your quick reply, I think this will work, but I am wondering, in PS.APL_V0105S027CB0006_SC.U_DI.A_GP.F18-SSUSI_PA.APL-EDR-AURORA_DD.20230423_SN.069699-00_DF.nc file has many variables but only following variables are loaded 1. DATETIME
2 STARTING_TIME
3 STOPPING_TIME
4 GRID_MLAT
5 GRID_MLON
6 GRID_MLT
7 GRID_UT
8 GRID_AUR_1216
9 GRID_AUR_1304
10 GRID_AUR_1356
11 GRID_AUR_LBHS
12 GRID_AUR_LBHL , is there anything missing so I am not able to see all variables. I could not find 'NORTH_GEOGRAPHIC_LATITUDE' variable in above list.

Sorry, the package supports only the 2-D emissions in SSUSI EDR_AUR data. The loading for the auroral oval boundary locations and other parameters has not been implemented.
