Space Weather News for Jan. 26, 2007
http://spaceweather.com

SOLAR ACTIVITY:  Something on the far side of the sun exploded
yesterday, hurling a bright coronal mass ejection over the sun's eastern
limb. An active sunspot must be lurking just around the corner. It
should appear in a few days when solar rotation carries that part of the
sun into view. Stay tuned for solar activity.

COMET MCNAUGHT:  The Great Comet of 2007 is receding from Earth and
fading fast, but it is still a naked-eye object (recent estimates place
the comet's head at 1st magnitude) and an easy target for amateur
photographers in the southern hemisphere.  A 30-second exposure with an
off-the-shelf digital camera reveals a curving, dusty tail more than 25
degrees long.  Photographers should take their pictures soon, before
next week's full Moon spoils the show.
