CHINESE ROCKET DISINTEGRATES OVER THE USA: The body of an experimental Long
March 7 rocket (a type of rocket expected to play a key role in the
construction of a future Chinese space station) disintegrated in the
atmosphere above the western USA last night.  The glowing trail was spotted
from Utah, Nevada, and much of California.  Visit http://spaceweather.com for
photos, video and more information.
 
THE PERSEID METEOR SHOWER IS BEGINNING: Earth is entering the outskirts of a
broad stream of debris from Comet Swift-Tuttle, source of the annual Perseid
meteor shower. Forecasters don't expect the shower to peak until Aug.11-13,
but already NASA cameras are detecting Perseid fireballs streaking across the
night sky as the shower slowly intensifies. Visit http://spaceweather.com to
see the first Perseid of 2016.
