Space Weather News for August 20, 2010


SPACE STATION  AURORAS: With solar activity on the rise, August 2010 has 
been a good  month for auroras. There have been sightings of Northern Lights 
as far south as  Wisconsin and Iowa in the United States, and some fine 
displays of Southern  Lights over Antarctica. Some of the best pictures so far 
have come from Earth  orbit, where astronauts have a front-row seat for 
geomagnetic storms.
