PLANETS ALIGN:  Step outside tonight at sunset and look west toward the glow
of the setting sun.  As soon as the sky gets dark, you'll see three
planets--Venus, Mercury and Saturn--gathered close together not far above
the western horizon  It's a beautiful alignment. You have three chances to
see them: June 25th, June 26th and June 27th.  A clear view of the western
horizon is key.

NOCTILUCENT CLOUDS:  While you're out looking at the planets, be alert also
for noctilucent clouds.  They've been sighted over Europe and/or Canada
almost every day for the past two weeks. Noctilucent clouds typically appear
after sunset, glowing electric blue and crisscrossed by many fine ripples
and waves.    Visit spaceweather.com to view sample photos and to read about
the mystery of this beautiful phenomenon.
