SpaceWeather.com -- News and information about meteor showers, solar flares, auroras, and near-Earth asteroids
Over the weekend, NASA's network of all-sky meteor cameras recorded more than a dozen alpha Capricornid fireballs over the USA, including this one above Mount Hopkins, Arizona: This is an annual shower, which peaks every year between the 25th and 30th of July. Automated software maintained by NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office calculates their orbits, velocity, penetration depth in Earth's atmosphere and many other characteristics
But which is it? Though there is no scientific concrete theory as to how often eclipses occur, one thing is certain; solar and lunar eclipses come in pairs. The key point to this eclipse for you is a possible change of residence, domestic life, secret love affairs, and perhaps you might even consider going to school or learning a trade
Everything you need to know: Draconid Meteor shower October 22, 2015 before dawn, the Orionids On a dark, moonless night, the Orionids exhibit a maximum of about 10 to 20 meteors per hour. Some who witnessed the 1966 Leonid meteor storm said they felt as if they needed to grip the ground, so strong was the impression of Earth plowing along through space, fording the meteoroid stream

Partner in physical form or still to be created form, the Nodes give yourself permission to partner with your dream and might even bring IN a partner to move forward with. Never having done that before, I was rather shocked and horrified at what I had gotten myself into as it whipped around on the little hills and curves at what seemed to me to be a break neck speed
The outermost part of the crust is broken and jumbled due to all the large impacts it has received, a shattered zone that gives way to intact material below a depth of about 6 miles (9.6 km). The average composition of the lunar surface by weight is roughly 43 percent oxygen, 20 percent silicon, 19 percent magnesium, 10 percent iron, 3 percent calcium, 3 percent aluminum, 0.42 percent chromium, 0.18 percent titanium and 0.12 percent manganese

Pity with the energy requirement, and then I realized that a rover program will run slam dunk in the larger problem of the currently restricted nuclear isotope availability
Wolf Barber Grove Observatory (BGO) Robert-Victor October 5, 2014 at 8:45 pm Alan, In the timetable for the total lunar eclipse, in the column for Pacific Daylight Time, the start of totality is given as 3:35 a.m. A combination of the latitude of the observer and the time during the eclipse when the photo is taken will give a variety of separations between the two bodies

His love for the heavens has taken him to Lake Titicaca in Bolivia, and he has sailed the North Atlantic, earning his celestial navigation certificate through the School of Ocean Sailing and Navigation. For instance, the solar eclipse at the end of the year on December 25, 1935, was followed by a lunar eclipse one fortnight (two weeks) later on January 8, 1936
Art64: Will all the animals that use the moon for direction at night get lost or die during the eclipse? Rob: Animals that depend on moonlight to see prey will definitely not be able to see as well because the moon will be much fainter. This is a special event! warren65: Are we closer to the sun and farther from the moon at the same time? Rob: Nothing special right now -- we're closer to the sun in early January and furthest in July

Total Lunar Eclipse of 2004 Oct 27-28 Beginning (right), middle (center) and end (left) of totality (click to see photo gallery) Why is the Moon Red During a Total Lunar Eclipse? During a total lunar eclipse, the Earth blocks the Sun's light from reaching the Moon. (Sizes and distances not to scale) Types of Lunar Eclipses An eclipse of the Moon (or lunar eclipse) can only occur at Full Moon, and only if the Moon passes through some portion of Earth's shadow
Total Lunar Eclipse - AirSpaceAirSpace
For a LUNAR eclipse, if you can see the Moon (only half the Earth can see it at a time) during the time of the eclipse, you will be able to see parts or all of the eclipse. someone, i dont like giving personsal info says: December 20, 2010 at 9:24 pm i REALLY WANT TO SEE IT BUT IF ITS STORMY Will i still be able to see it? will it stand out or will it be all for nothing? this is my first time seeing it so i really want to see it and ive heard its amazing
Today's night sky
Venus will be at inferior conjunction with the Sun on August 15, so, we have less than two more weeks of seeing it in the evening sky! It will be next summer before we see Venus back again in the evening sky! Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. It's very easy to use!

Kelly Beatty Update: Watch this morning's Today Show to see Alan MacRobert talk about the total lunar eclipse and why it's an excellent opportunity to turn our eyes (and those of our friends and neighbors) to the sky. Why so? Our atmosphere scatters and refracts (bends) sunlight that grazes the rim of our globe, so that red glow comes from all the sunrises and sunsets around Earth's terminator at the moment
