Calarogu Shark Media. Welcome to Sleep from Space. This is
2
00:00:10.720 --> 00:00:14.039
your daily space report. Close your eyes if you'd like,
3
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:18.839
and let's drift through today's space weather and sky events. First,
4
00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:23.679
the space weather sunspot activity continues to increase as we
5
00:00:23.760 --> 00:00:28.079
move deeper into Solar cycle twenty five. Several active regions
6
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:31.600
on the Sun are showing high magnetic complexity, which raises
7
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:34.840
the chance of C class flares over the next twenty
8
00:00:34.840 --> 00:00:38.439
four hours. Because of this, there is a heightened chance
9
00:00:38.479 --> 00:00:43.640
of auroras, especially across higher latitudes. Even a small geomagnetic
10
00:00:43.679 --> 00:00:48.039
disturbance could make the aurora oval expand, increasing visibility in
11
00:00:48.119 --> 00:00:53.079
northern regions under dark skies. In Asteroid News twenty nineteen,
12
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.320
X and three, about the size of a house will
13
00:00:56.359 --> 00:00:59.560
pass Earth in about three days at a safe distance
14
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:02.079
of five two points seven times the distance to the Moon.
15
00:01:02.520 --> 00:01:05.599
It poses no threat to Earth, but it's a reminder
16
00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:10.040
of the dynamic neighborhood we live in. Now to today's launch news,
17
00:01:11.040 --> 00:01:14.439
SpaceX is preparing for a Falcon nine launch later today
18
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:19.040
from Vandenberg Space Force Base, California. The mission will deploy
19
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:23.159
Starlink Internet satellites, and if conditions allow, the booster will
20
00:01:23.159 --> 00:01:26.480
attempt to land back at Vandenberg. If you look up tonight,
21
00:01:26.719 --> 00:01:30.400
Orion the Hunter is climbing in the eastern sky after sunset.
22
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:35.680
Look for three bright stars in a row. That's Orion's belt.
23
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:40.239
Follow the belt downward, and you'll find Sirius, the brightest
24
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:43.920
star in the night sky, shining with a blue white
25
00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:49.239
brilliance low on the horizon. That's today's space report. As
26
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:53.000
you rest tonight, remember that Earth moves quietly through space,
27
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:58.319
wrapped in its protective magnetic field, while rockets launch and
28
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:02.000
distant worlds wait to be explored. Sleep well,
