For those in New Jersey, the sun sets around 6:25 p.m., so the best viewing starts around 7:10 p.m. The comet will be visible for about 90 minutes before it dips too low.
New York, Oregon, Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine are along the aurora’s projected view line as of Monday. The best way to view the lights
Psi 5 Aurigae (ψ 5 Aur, ψ 5 Aurigae) is a star [8] in the northern constellation of Auriga. It is faintly visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of 5.25. [ 2 ] Based upon parallax measurements made during the Hipparcos mission, this star is approximately 53.9 light-years (16.5 parsecs ) distant from Earth . [ 1 ]
AB Aurigae is a young Herbig Ae star [3] in the Auriga constellation. It is located at a distance of approximately 509 light years from the Sun based on stellar parallax. [1] This pre-main-sequence star has a stellar classification of A0Ve, [4] matching an A-type main-sequence star with emission lines in the spectrum.
In the U.S., that means you should look to the north. The top of a hill with a clear view toward the north should have a good chance of seeing the Northern Lights.
But this time, for first time in nearly 20 years, the Space Weather Prediction Center issued a severe, or level G4 warning, with potential for aurora to be seen in New Jersey and a far south as ...
SU Aurigae is a T Tauri-type variable star in the constellation Auriga. It is located about 500 light-years (150 parsecs) away in the Taurus-Auriga Star Forming Region. Its apparent magnitude is 9.30, which is dim enough that it cannot be seen with the unaided eye. In 1907, Henrietta Swan Leavitt discovered that SU Aurigae is a variable star. [5]
