Space Weather News for August 7, 2006
http://spaceweather.com
AURORA SURPRISE: A solar wind stream hit Earth this morning, sparking a geomagnetic storm. The arrival of the stream was unexpected, but the auroras it produced were a pleasant surprise. Bright, colorful lights appeared over Canada, while "photographic auroras" descended as far south as Colorado. See pictures of the event at http://spaceweather.com.
DAWN PLANETS: Up before dawn? Step outside and look east. You'll see Venus and Mercury beaming through the rosy glow of sunrise. This week, the two bright morning planets are converging for a close encounter on August 10th and 11th. It's a nice way to begin the day.
