DESCRIPTION:Oct. 26\, 12:52 a.m. EDT - The Full Hunter's Moon. With the 
 leaves falling and the deer fattened\, it is time to hunt. Since the fie
 lds have been reaped\, hunters can ride over the stubble\, and can more 
 easily see the fox\, also other animals that have come out to glean and 
 can be caught for a thanksgiving banquet after the harvest. The Moon wil
 l also be at perigee later this day\, at 7:00 a.m.\, at a distance of 22
 1\,676 miles from Earth. Very high tides can be expected from the coinci
 dence of perigee with full Moon.\n\nhttp://www.space.com/spacewatch/0612

DESCRIPTION:This is the only total lunar eclipse for 2010. Visible from 
 your area? Check here:\n\nhttp://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=total+lun
 ar+eclipse+2010\n\n"The entire event is visible from North America and w
 estern South America. Observers along South America's east coast miss th
 e late stages of the eclipse because they occur after moonset. Likewise 
 much of Europe and Africa experience moonset while the eclipse is in pro
 gress. Only northern Scandinavians can catch the entire event from Europ
 e. For observers in eastern Asia the Moon rises in eclipse. None of the 
 eclipse is visible from south and east Africa\, the Middle East or South
  Asia."\n\nhttp://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/OH/OH2010.html#LE2010Dec21T\n\n

DESCRIPTION:This new moon causes a total eclipse of the Sun -- visible f
 rom a narrow corridor that traverses half the Earth. The path of the Moo
 n’s umbral shadow begins in Canada and extends across northern Greenland
 \, the Arctic\, central Russia\, Mongolia\, and China where it will end 
 at sunset. A partial eclipse is seen within the much broader path of the
  Moon’s penumbral shadow\, which includes northeastern North America\, a
 nd most of Europe and Asia.\n\nhttp://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/OH/

DESCRIPTION:"Considered by many to be the best meteor shower in the heav
 ens\, the Geminids are known for producing up to 60 multicolored meteors
  per hour at their peak. The peak of the shower is on December 13 & 14\,
  although some meteors should be visible from December 6 - 19. This year
 \, a nearly new moon will provide an excellent viewing experience in the
  early morning hours. The radiant point for this shower will be in the c
 onstellation Gemini. Best viewing is usually to the east after midnight.

DESCRIPTION:Not usually as spectacular as the Perseids (August) or Gemin

 ear the full moon.  However\, this Quadrantids shower will take place in
  the deep dark of the new moon -- so this may in fact be the best shower
  in 2011.\n\nFrom Wikipedia: "The peak intensity is exceedingly sharp: t
 he meteor rates exceed one-half of their highest value for only about 8 
 hours (compared to two days for the August Perseids). This means that th
 e stream of particles that produces this shower is narrow – and apparent
 ly deriving from and within the last 500-years from some orbiting body."

 instant of greatest eclipse (03:26 UT) the Moon lies near the zenith for
  observers in French Guiana. The entire event is visible from South Amer
 ica and most of North America. Observers along North America's west coas
 t miss the early stages of the partial eclipse because it begins before 
 moon rise. Alaskans in Anchorage and Fairbanks experience moonrise durin
 g totality but bright evening twilight will make it difficult for sourdo
 ughs to view the event. Western Europe and northwest Africa also see the
  entire eclipse. Further to the east (east Africa and central Asia)\, th
 e Moon sets before the eclipse ends. None of the eclipse is visible from
  eastern Asia or Australia.\n\nhttp://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/OH/

DESCRIPTION:Nov. 24\, 9:30 a.m. EST - The Full Beaver Moon. Time to set 
 beaver traps before the swamps freeze to ensure a supply of warm winter 
 furs. Another interpretation suggests that the name Beaver Full Moon com
 es from the fact that the beavers are now active in their preparation fo
 r winter. Also called the Frosty Moon.\n\nhttp://www.space.com/spacewatc

DESCRIPTION:*** A great chance to see a fairly dramatic eclipse from the
  USA ***\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_May_20\,_2012\
 n\nAn annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line\,
  but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun. Henc
 e the Sun appears as a very bright ring\, or annulus\, surrounding the o
 utline of the Moon.\n\nThe May 2012 annular phase will be visible from t
 he Chinese coast\, the south of Japan\, and the western part of the Unit
 ed States and Canada. Guangzhou\, Tokyo and Albuquerque will be on the c
 entral path. \n\nIts maximum will occur in the North Pacific\, south of 
 the Aleutian islands for 5 min and 46.3 s\, and finish in the western Un
 ited States.\n\nIt will be the first central eclipse of the 21st century
  in the continental USA\, and also the first annular eclipse there since
  the solar eclipse of May 10\, 1994 which was also the previous eclipse 
 of this series Solar Saros 128.

DTSTAMP:20111230T221119Z
SEQUENCE:6
DESCRIPTION:Watch before dawn on Sunday. With the waxing crescent moon s
 etting before midnight (on October 20)\, that means a dark sky between m
 idnight and dawn\, or during the best viewing hours for the Orionid mete
 ors. On a dark\, moonless night\, the Orionids exhibit a maximum of abou
 t 15 meteors per hour. These fast-moving meteors occasionally leave pers
 istent trains and bright fireballs. If you trace these meteors backward\
 , they seem to come from the Club of the famous constellation Orion the 
 Hunter. You might know Orion’s bright\, ruddy star Betelgeuse. The radia
 nt is north of Betelgeuse. The Orionids have a broad and irregular peak 
 that isn’t easy to predict. More meteors tend to fly after midnight\, an
 d the Orionids are typically at their best in the wee hours before dawn.
  The best viewing for the Orionids in 2012 will probably be before dawn 
 on October 21..\n\n

SUMMARY:Leonids Meteor Shower
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20121116
DTSTAMP:20111230T221249Z
SEQUENCE:5
DESCRIPTION:Radiating from the constellation Leo the Lion\, the Leonid m
 eteor shower is famous. Historically\, this shower has produced some of 
 the greatest meteor storms in history – at least one in living memory\, 
 1966 – with rates as high as many thousands of meteors per hour. Indeed\
 , on that beautiful night in 1966\, the meteors did fall like rain. Some
  who watched the shower said they felt as if they needed to grip the gro
 und\, so strong was the impression of Earth plowing along through space\
 , fording the meteoroid stream. The meteors\, after all\, were all strea
 ming from a single point in the sky – the radiant point – in this case i
 n the constellation Leo the Lion. Leonid meteor storms sometimes recur i
 n cycles of 33 to 34 years\, but the Leonids around the turn of the cent
 ury – while wonderful for many observers – did not match the shower of 1
 966. And\, in most years\, the Lion whimpers rather than roars\, produci
 ng a maximum of perhaps 10-15 meteors per hour. Like most meteor showers
 \, the Leonids ordinarily pick up steam after midnight and display the g
 reatest meteor numbers just before dawn. In 2012\, however\, the waxing 
 crescent moon will setting at early evening\, leaving a dark night for L
 eonid meteor shower

SUMMARY:Geminids Meteor Shower
DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20121213
DTSTAMP:20111230T221422Z
SEQUENCE:5
DESCRIPTION:Geminids\nThe final major meteor shower of every year (unles
 s one surprises us!) is always the December Geminid shower\, often produ
 cing 50 or more meteors per hour. It is a beloved shower\, because\, as 
 a general rule\, it’s either the August Perseids or the December Geminid
 s that give us the most prolific display of the year. Best of all\, the 
 new moon guarantees a dark sky on the peak night of the Geminid shower (
 mid-evening December 13 until dawn December 14). But the nights on eithe
 r side of the peak date should be good as well. Unlike many meteor showe
 rs\, you can start watching the Geminids by 9 or 10 p.m. local time. The
  peak might be around 2 a.m. local time on these nights\, because that’s
  when the shower’s radiant point is highest in the sky as seen around th
 e world. With no moon to ruin the show\, 2012 presents a most favorable 
 year for watching the grand finale of the meteor showers. Best viewing o
 f the Geminids will probably be from about 1 a.m. to 3 a.m. on December 
 14.\n\n
