SPOOKY ECLIPSE OF THE HARVEST MOON:  According to folklore, this Friday's full
Moon is the Harvest Moon.  For many observers, the usual luster of the silver
orb will be dimmed by a spooky shadow as the Moon experiences a "penumbral
lunar eclipse." Visit http://spaceweather.com for visibility maps and a cool
animation.
 
EARTH'S MAGNETIC FIELD CAUGHT RINGING LIKE A BELL:  This week a magnetic
observatory in Norway recorded almost pure sinusoidal oscillations in Earth's
magnetic field--a phenomenon unlike normal geomagnetic storms. The magnetic
"ringing" was accompanied by equally sinusoidal electric currents flowing
through the ground. The data and underlying physics are highlighted on today's
edition of http://spaceweather.com.
