HOLE IN THE SUN'S ATMOSPHERE:  A canyon-shaped hole in the sun's atmosphere
has opened up and it is spewing solar wind toward Earth. Estimated time of
arrival: March 27-28.  Arctic sky watchers should be alert for a springtime
display of auroras.  Visit http://spaceweather.com for more information.
NEW RADAR IMAGES OF EARTH-BUZZING COMET:  Earlier this week, comet fragment
P/2016 BA14 made an unusually-close approach to Earth. Using a radar in the
Mojave Desert, NASA researchers pinged the comet as it passed by, revealing an
icy nucleus that looks like a brick--or a pear--depending on your point of
view. See for yourself on today's edition of http://spaceweather.com
