Subject: Meteors and a Spaceship
Space Weather News for August 12, 2002
http://www.spaceweather.com
This week is a good time for sky watchers in the United States to see a
bright spaceship: the International Space Station (ISS). The station will
appear in evening skies over North America often between now and August
17th. It's easy to spot, if you know when and where to look. Follow the
links at spaceweather.com for details.
Meanwhile, the annual Perseid meteor shower is underway. The shower peaks
on August 12th and 13th. Step outside after dark on Monday and you might
spot a rare and colorful Perseid Earthgrazer. Better yet, set your alarm
to ring before local dawn on Tuesday. You could see dozens or hundreds of
shooting stars then.
