FIREBALL ALERT: On Sunday morning, Jan. 15th, between approximately 1:56 and
1:59 a.m. PST (0956 - 0959 UT), a brilliant fireball will streak over
northern California and Nevada. It's NASA's Stardust capsule, returning to
Earth with samples of dust from Comet Wild 2. Observers along the flight
path should have a marvelous view of this rare man-made meteor. Radio
signals reflected from the capsule's ionized tail may be heard from a much
wider area--hundreds to thousands of miles away. Visit

INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION: The International Space Station is flying over
the United States in mid-January during evening hours when it is easy to
see. Would you like a phone call to alert you when the station is about to
appear over your home town? Sign up for SpaceWeather PHONE:
