Space Weather News for Oct. 5, 2003

THE MOON AND MARS: They're the two brightest objects in the night sky,
and tonight you can see them pleasingly close together. The Moon will
glide by Mars after sunset on Sunday, Oct 5th. Visit Spaceweather.com for
observing tips and a recent snapshot of the Moon and Mars captured by NASA
astronaut Ed Lu onboard the International Space Station.
AURORA WATCH: Earth is heading for a solar wind stream flowing from a
coronal hole on the Sun. First contact with the stream is possible on
Oct. 6th or 7th. High-latitude sky watchers--e.g., people in Canada,
Alaska and US northern-border states like Michigan and Wisconsin--should
be alert for auroras.
