You can also see Alpha Centauri only from the southern regions, a multiple star
system which includes Proxima Centauri, the closest star to our solar system. I
remember feeling very out of place the very first time I went to the southern

We have an update on our meteor. My wife called the U of A astronomy contact whose
name was in the local paper (he had asked for anyone who had seen it to call him,
to help in triangulation). Together with eye witness accounts and triangulation
from the U of A observatory, and a smaller observatory

be able to say she wasn't exaggerating when she said it lasted for about 7 seconds.

Oh, I should have added another story to this. The time I proposed to my wife there was

Yesterday morning (28/11) my wife was up early and saw the meteor of her
life. A very bright greenish-white fireball that lasted for 7 seconds
streaked from east to west across the southern sky. Local scientists
think it hit the surface near Drayton Valley, some 50 km SW of us.
