CREATES ARTIFICIAL 'SPACE CLOUDS': A rocket launched before sunrise on
June 29th from NASA's Wallops Flight Facility produced an amazing
display of colorful 'space clouds' over the east coast of the USA.
Onlookers described their "erupting colors" as "vivid", "spellbinding",
and "brilliantly apparent" as the vaporous forms spread across the
early morning sky. To learn more about the clouds, and why NASA made
them, visit today's edition of

ECLIPSE BALLOON NETWORK: The Great American Solar Eclipse is less than
two months away. Where will you be on Aug. 21, 2017, when the Moon
completely covers the sun? Spaceweather.com and the students of Earth
to Sky Calculus plan to observe the eclipse from the stratosphere,
photographing the Moon's shadow and collecting unique cosmic ray data
high above any obscuring clouds. We'll do it using space weather
balloons launched from multiple sites along the path of totality. Learn
more about how you can support or even join the Solar Eclipse Balloon
Network.
