BIG FULL MOON: This week's full Moon (Oct. 25-26) is the biggest full Moon
of 2007. It's no illusion. Some full Moons are genuinely larger than others
and Thursday night's will be as much as 14% wider and 30% brighter than
lesser full Moons we've seen earlier this year. Check
http://spaceweather.com for the reasons why.
SPACESHIP SIGHTINGS: Space shuttle Discovery launched this morning from
NASA's Kennedy Space Center on a two-week mission to the International Space
Station (ISS). This means sky watchers should be alert for spaceship flybys
in the nights ahead. Both Discovery and ISS will make favorable passes over
many US cities with the possibility of double flybys later this week when
the two spacecraft are about to dock.
