FOR starry news, space updates and a great-looking site, visit space.com (www.space.com).
A recent feature entitled What's Shakin' was about a satellite being launched that would help monitor, and hopefully predict, earthquakes.
Other stories that caught one's eye were the dying stars in the Tarantula Nebula and the Mystery of the Sun's two north poles.
For some fantastic news and views of the skies and space visit spaceweather.com (www.spaceweather.com).
It is current and up-to-date, offering views of the aurora borealis alerts for northern Europe, Canada, the US and New Zealand.
The site included a fantastic photograph of an Alaskan Northern Nights scene, complete with a shooting star.
You can also get asteroid hazard warnings and geomagnetic storm outlooks.
There's enough information to take you well into the night. Enjoy!
