0:03 Calarogus Shark Media. You're listening to sleep from space. Step outside and look south. Orion commands the sky. The constellation seven main stars form one of the most recognizable patterns in the heavens. Binoculars reveal the sword hanging from his belt. Heads up for asteroid fans. Twenty twenty two. OC three passes Earth in about seven days, about one point three lunar distances away. It's about the size of a house. Harmless but fun to track. Solar activity is up. Multiple sunspot regions show high magnetic complexity, so sea class flares are possible. Aurora watchers in Canada and the northern US might catch some green on the horizon. Tonight, NASA's Artemus two moon rocket has arrived at the launch pad at Cape Canaveral. Four astronauts will fly around the Moon as early as February sixth, the first first crude lunar mission in over fifty years. And with that we'll say good night, see you tomorrow.
