GLOBAL SATELLITE TRACKING: Spaceweather.com's simple Satellite Tracker has gone global. The tool now works not only for US and Canadian readers, but also for sky watchers in countries around the world. This development comes as the International Space Station is making bright and frequent nightly apparitions over Europe, Africa, the Middle East, parts of Asia and Australia. If you live in those areas, give it a try: http://spaceweather.com/flybys
POLLEN CORONAS: Warning, this story may make you sneeze. Swarms of springtime pollen in the northern hemisphere are drifting in front of the sun and making multi-colored coronas (rings of light) in the sky. Unlike circular coronas caused by water droplets in clouds, pollen coronas have strange elliptical shapes dotted by colorful bright patches. Pictures featured on today's edition of http://spaceweather.com show you what to look for.
