I don’t know why, but you should be getting a great aurora show in Britain right now. |

Well now there seems to be a reason for the quick on again off again displays of aurora that we have seen earlier today. http://science.nasa.gov/science-news/science-at-nasa/2008/20mar_spring/ |

I tried to image Mars along with M95 and the new nova there. The line below mars is in the right place to be the nova. http://www.tootpix.ca/M95%20Mars1.jpg On this page at the bottem. http://www.tootpix.ca/pix.htm It is getting brighter daily so it will get better as time passes. |

We have cloud in this part of workers’ paradise of Alberta, But if you are anywhere close to the Canadian border with out cloud you will be treated to a nice light show tonight. In Britain you may be getting it now. |

Not quite an Aurora, but: I can see no reason why physics would not work in the sun's atmosphere the same way they do in earth’s atmosphere. |

We have been getting a lot of cloud so I can’t see any aurora, but to-night I got a nice image of Venus eclipsing the Pleiades. You have to be careful the file is very large. http://www.tootpix.ca/pix.htm |

There should be an aurora display to-night in the north of the UK. |

Look up tomorrow evening. Lyrid meteor show peaks. Should be good tonight and Sunday as well. Here is a NASA video about it. Saturn and Mars are prominent too. |

Sorry to report 99% cloud, Same as last night, Just a big orange glow, sometimes a county wide power outage would be nice . . . . |

Right now, if you have a clear sky and you live north of Wyoming, you have aurora. |
