WomanInBlack Offer Upgrade User ID: 671963 Canada 05/26/2009 04:30 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	SPACE STATION FLARES Space Weather News for May 26, 2009 [link to spaceweather.com] SPACE STATION FLARES: Lately, a growing number of observers are reporting intense "flares" coming from the International Space Station (ISS). During some nighttime flybys, the luminosity of the space station surges 10-fold or more. Some people have witnessed flares of magnitude -8 or twenty-five times brighter than Venus. A movie featured on today's edition of [link to spaceweather.com] shows what is happening: sunlight glints from the station's recently expanded solar arrays in a shadow-casting flash. Currently, the flares are unpredictable. You watch a flyby not knowing if one will happen or how bright it might be. That's what makes the hunt for "ISS flares" so much fun. Sky watchers in North America should be alert for flares this week. The ISS is making a series of evening passes over many US and Canadian towns and cities. Flyby times are available from the Simple Satellite Tracker: [link to spaceweather.com] We forfeit three-fourths of ourselves in order to be like other people.
