Today's NASA Briefing
by Patrick Wiggins 03 Feb '05

03 Feb '05

Two things of note out of today's briefing. 1) The briefer noted they have received 132 reports of found debris in CA, 130 in AZ and 9 in NM but that none had been confirmed. He made no mention of Utah. 2) The picture mentioned in the Aviation Week article was shown. Some of the media has been playing it up as being "hi resolution". Don't know that I'd call it hi-res but it does show the shape of the orbiter and maybe there's "something" with the left wing but the image is so pixcelated it's hard to say for sure. No doubt the picture will be all over the TV tonight.

Joe, I see it the same way and wondered the same thing even before reading your post. The ring is not parallel with the belts. I'm also wondering where the top of the planet disappeared to. Siegfried Jachmann Family History Network Comptroller 801-553-8881

RE: [Utah-astronomy] Any Idea if light can be seen angain?

Most of us have also been Poor College Kids, so stop feeling sorry for yourself! ;) I suspect that skies are dark enough most anywhere in Sanpete County. I think the aurora was simply a no-show from your location. Remember, the peak of the storm occured Tuesday night/Wednesday morning, so last night was a gamble at best anyway. -----Original Message----- From: Bruce Glad [mailto:astronomy_rules@yahoo.com] Sent: Thursday, October 30, 2003 10:29 AM To: utah-astronomy(a)mailman.xmission.com Subject: [Utah-astronomy] Any Idea if light can be seen angain? Hi, I read this list all the time but I never really write to it, I should more often. Anyhow I'm attending Snow College right now, I took some friends with me last night and we sat and waited until 2:00 the northern light never showed the only thing we saw where the lights from Nephi. I think maybe I need to get further away from the city? Am I far enough north from my location? If not where would be best to go? I checked NOAA website and it look iffy from my location just wanted your guys take on it. -Bruce, A.K.A. Poor College Kid.... _____ Do you Yahoo!?
