    TAU HERCULID FIREBALL: Yes, debris from Comet 73P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 3 might actually be approaching Earth. A camera operated by the Spanish Meteor and Fireball Network caught a piece of the broken comet disintegrating over Zaragoza on May 27th: watch the movie. This is a hopeful sign that a larger cloud of debris hypothosized by researchers may be following not far behind, and might produce a tau Herculid meteor outburst on May 30-31. If the outburst occurs--a big IF--sky watchers in North America will be favored to see it. [full story] [sky mapSolar wind speed: 536.7 km/sec

    SOUTHERN LIGHTS: A co-rotating interaction region (CIR) hit Earth's magnetic field on May 27th. The impact sparked 12 hours of geomagnetic storming (G1-class) and a rare display of Southern Lights. Minoru Yoneto sends this deep-sky exposure from Queenstown, New Zealand:

    "Here in the South Island of New Zealand, where the leaves have fallen and the ski slopes will open next month, the temperature outside was already below 3 degrees Celsius when I left home," says Yoneta. "I took all the precautions I could to keep warm!"
    CIRs are transition zones between fast- and slow-moving streams of solar wind; they contain shock waves and enhanced magnetic fields that can spark bright auroras. This one certainly did. The display was also seen in the northern hemisphere as far south as Michigan and Wisconsin. Aurora alerts: SMS Text
