M-CLASS
SOLAR FLARE: Sunspot AR1540 erupted
on August 11th, producing a long-duration M1-class
solar flare that peaked around 1220 UT. NASA's Solar
Dynamics Observatory recorded the extreme ultraviolet
flash:
The explosion hurled a faint cloud
of plasma into space. Judging from the blast site's
off-center location on the solar disk, the cloud
is probably not heading for Earth. This conclusion
is uncertain, however. Stay tuned for additional
analysis. Solar Flare

Radio for live echoes from Perseid meteors flying
over the US Space Surveillance Radar in Texas.
The multi-station Canadian Meteor
Orbit Radar, sponsored by NASA's Meteoroid Environment
Office, is also monitoring the Perseids. Live
data are available here. Bright spots in this
sample radar sky map show the radiants of currently
active showers:
Clearly, the Perseids are not the
only meteors in the sky this weekend. The Northern
and Southern Delta Aquarids (NDA and SDA) are also
active. These showers, which are minor compared
to the Perseids, spring from 96P/Machholz,
a comet that some researchers suspect is a visitor
from another star system.
This is a great weekend for watching
meteors--but that's not all. Venus, Jupiter and
the crescent Moon are lining up in the pre-dawn
sky right in the middle of the Perseid display.
The conjunction of planets guarantees that you will
see something beautiful even in the unlikely event
that the shower fizzles. Sky maps:
