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.  Visit http://Spaceweather.com for latest images from 
the International Space Station.
