SpaceX launches a Falcon nine later today from Cape Canaveral SFS, Florida,
3
00:00:18.239 --> 00:00:24.000
carrying Starlink Internet satellites. The constellation Leo takes center stage
4
00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:28.920
as winter gives way to spring. Find the bright star Regulus,
5
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:33.159
then trace the sickle shaped pattern that forms the lion's head.

NASA's approach to managing the development of crude lunar landers
7
00:00:37.679 --> 00:00:42.920
for Artemis has successfully controlled costs but not schedule, raising
8
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:48.000
questions about NASA's desire to accelerate those efforts. Big news tonight,
9
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:53.000
a geomagnetic storm is hitting Earth and the northern lights
10
00:00:53.039 --> 00:00:56.960
may be visible much farther south than usual. People as
11
00:00:57.000 --> 00:00:59.640
far south as the northern United States could see the
12
00:00:59.679 --> 00:01:03.840
eurro head outside after dark. Look north and give your
13
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:08.000
eyes time to adjust. One of the many asteroids in
14
00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:12.239
our neighborhood twenty twenty six D seventeen swings by in
15
00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:15.519
about five days, at roughly the length of a bus.
16
00:01:15.799 --> 00:01:19.640
It'll pass roughly two times the Moon's distance. No threat,
17
00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:24.040
just a cosmic passerby. Look for the worm Moon tonight
18
00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:28.480
as the ground thaws. Earthworms emerge, a sign of spring
19
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:32.120
that gives this moon its name. This is Sleep from Space,
