Space Weather News for Oct. 31, 2006 http://spaceweather.com

SPOOKY ASTRONOMY: Today is a date of astronomical interest: it's a cross-quarter date, midway between an equinox and a solstice. There are four cross-quarter dates throughout the year, and each is a minor holiday. One is Groundhog Day (Feb. 2nd), another is May Day (May 1st), the third is Lammas Day (Aug. 1st), and the fourth ... ? Happy Halloween!


TRANSIT OF MERCURY: On Wednesday, Nov. 8th, Mercury will cross the face of the Sun--a five-hour transit widely visible from the Americas, Hawaii and around the Pacific Rim. For fun (and prizes) we're holding a Transit of Mercury Art and Photo Contest. Click here for details: http://Spaceweather.com/mercury/
