Meteor Day
June 30 is Meteor Day. Have you ever seen a meteor or shooting star zip through the night sky? Have you ever wondered what causes that phenomenon? Read about meteors on the NASA Space Academy site or at Space.Com. Upcoming meteor showers are even announced on the Space.Com Spacewatch page.
To find out more information about meteors and outer space, visit the UW Space Place, located at 2300 S. Park St., at the Villager shopping center.

Sort of off topic, but reading this post reminded me. Tonight (7/6) between 9:21 and 9:24 the space shuttle and the space station are going to be visible in the southern part of the sky. It’s supposed to move west to east.
