ASTRONOMY IRELAND MAILING LIST - www.astronomy.ie (The all-Ireland astronomy Club, Magazine and Shop) --------------------------------------------------- An active sunspot ejected material toward the Earth on September 12 that was not expected to reach Earth until September 14/15 but it now appears the material was ejected much faster than expected. This could mean that an aurora will be seen tonight, September 13/14, i.e. Monday night, as material impacted Earth at 9:02pm BST September 13. The aurora should last 12 to 24 hours. There is a chance of an aurora Tuesday night also therefore. If you see anything pleas TEXT your name and location to 086 081 99 86 as usual (please store this number in your mobile phone now), then email a fuller report to observe@astronomy.ie for publication in our magazine. Thanks. Regards and clear skies, David Moore, Chairman, Astronomy Ireland.
