At 1.13.48 tomorrow morning there is a -8.2 mag flare that will be visible close to Arcturus, check out Heavens-Above for details. If it is clear it should be quite a sight.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

There is a -7 flare next to Jupiter on the 12th at 23:38.

That should be good as well.

Oh yes -I love these Iridium flares.

Sorry astrophotographers!

Let us hope for some clear skies. It has been awful for the last 10 days.
