Space- What is happening in the sky soon

We watched the northern lights while fishing on Saturday night.  Really lit up the sky and water.

Captured a few bolts of lightning before the rains came last night in N.E. WI.

Another CME inbound may be good show tonight if the T-storms clear out on schedule.
Lightning show followed by Northern Lights- not bad!

Good here. Pics are with my phone on night mode.

Got up around 0200 and the whole sky was lit up.  Pictures did not come out. Still learning new camera.  
Probably more tonight.  Radio bands still wiped out.

Tonight’s light show wasn’t very spectacular where I was at. Seen some other photos that were brilliant. 

SEVERE GEOMAGNETIC STORM--NOW! The first of six CMEs hurled toward Earth by giant sunspot AR3664 hit our planet's magnetic field today. The impact on May 10th at 1645 UT jolted magnetometers around the world and sparked a severe (G4-class) geomagnetic storm. This storm is underway now. More CMEs are following close behind and their arrival could extend the storm into the weekend.

Also High Frequency (HF) amateur bands are wiped out on 75 and 40- meters (3.555-4.0 MHZ and 7.1-7.3MHZ).  20 meter band (14MHZ) is weak and signals are warbling pretty bad. If you are into that.

Looks like good chances tonight and tomorrow.  Tough to predict times, but worth a drive in the country and looking up.  I find using my phone camera catches them even when faint-night mode, hold it steady.

Good to know Kayaker! 

FIVE CMEs ARE HEADING FOR EARTH: Great sunspot AR3664 has hurled an astonishing five CMEs toward Earth.
According to a NOAA forecast model, the first three CMEs could merge for form a "Cannibal CME." Cannibal CMEs form when fast-moving CMEs overtake and gobble up slower CMEs in front of them. Internal shock waves created by such CME collisions do an good job sparking geomagnetic storms when they strike Earth's magnetic field.
The Cannibal CME is expected to arrive on May 11th. It alone could spark a strong (G3) geomagnetic storm. With two more CMEs following close behind, storm levels could become extreme (G4), sparking auroras at mid- to low-latitudes across Europe and the USA.

​Nice night to stay up tonight!

That’s good RC! I will take a look in a bit when I go in. 
Note: We’re the Satellites “Identified”? If not , they were officially UFO’s! 😳 

Past few weeks been getting some good views of the Little Dipper.  Most of the year its too hazy to see most of it from my house.  Tonite is a good night for viewing and I watched 2 sattelites cris cross paths at the neck of the big dipper. 

I just read that CHINA and RUSSIA are thinking about building a nuclear reactor on the moon!    Knowing those 2 that can’t be good.

It’s official,  Odysseus has landed on the moon. First spacecraft to land on the lunar surface in more than 50 years. Pretty cool.

Pretty sure they crash landed on the moon.  The darn thing was and still is laying on the moon tipped over.  I read a few days ago that it powered down and is now a permanent lawn ornament.
