From: TerryMoselaol.com Date: Wed, 14 Sep 2005 19:00:52 EDT Subject: Aurora alert, IAA at the Argory, Lecture Hi all, 1. Giant sunspot 798/808 flared twice more yesterday, and at least one of the X-class explosions propelled a coronal mass ejection (CME) toward Earth. NOAA forecasters estimate a 70% chance of severe geomagnetic activity when the CME arrives--perhaps tonight, Sept. 14-15, or tomorrow night, 15-16. Sky watchers at all latitudes should be alert for auroras. 2. Don't forget the IAA Telescope / Solar day at The Argory, near Moy, on the Armagh/Tyrone border, on Sat 17th. The event is for charity workers in the area, not a free-for-all for astronomers, so you're only invited / expected to go if you have a telescope to put on display, particularly if you can offer some solar observing. It's from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. Please let me know if you're planning to attend. 3. Don't forget the IAA's keynote opening lecture, by Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe, on Wed 21st, Room 5, Stranmillis College, Belfast. "Where are we in our search for our origins?" will propose that all life on Earth came from space, seeded by giant comets. Fascinating & controversial stuff - not to be missed. Tell any members / friends who are not on email - all welcome! Clear Skies, Terry Moseley
