Sense one Chase signs People's Republic of China. China is
5
00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:27.399
sending up its payload. NASA's approach to managing the development
6
00:00:27.399 --> 00:00:31.760
of crude lunar landers for artemis has successfully controlled costs

but not schedule, raising questions about NASA's desire to accelerate
8
00:00:36.479 --> 00:00:40.920
those efforts. Asteroid twenty twenty six eg one, about the
9
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:44.560
size of a small building, will fly past Earth today,
10
00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:47.079
closer than the Moon about eighty two percent of the
11
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:51.200
lunar distance. Completely safe, but a nice reminder of our
12
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:57.000
busy solar system. Leo. The Lion rises in the east tonight.
13
00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:02.200
Look for the distinctive backward question mark that's the lion's

head and Maine regulus. A blue white star marks his heart.

The worm Moon rises in two days. As the ground thaws,
16
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:14.760
earthworms emerge, a sign of spring that gives this moon
17
00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:18.680
its name. Sun spots are busy right now. High magnetic
18
00:01:18.719 --> 00:01:22.799
complexity across the solar disc that translates to a moderate
19
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:27.120
chance of auroras for northern viewers. Look North after dark.
