Asteroid to sweep close October 11-12
Asteroid 2012 TC4 will pass farther than some thought at first, but still within the moon's orbit. How to see it online. Plus, how it'll be used it as a test of Earth's global asteroid defense system.
Tonight … Last quarter moon and Gemini stars
Stay up late to see them, or get up before dawn, when the moon, Castor and Pollux will be high in the sky as seen from across the globe.
Red sprite over Oklahoma
Photographer Paul Smith said he thinks this may be the 1st documented capture of these flickering lights - seen above thunderstorms - over Oklahoma.
Aquarius? Here’s your constellation
Look for Aquarius the Water Bearer this month. How to find it, its famous Water Jar asterism, plus a few stories from the ancient myths.

Last quarter moon and Gemini stars
Clouded out on Thursday morning? By Friday morning, the moon will have shifted on the sky's dome, but it'll still be near these stars.
