   COSMIC RAYS IN THE ATMOSPHERE: Newly-released measurements by high-altitude   
   balloons show that cosmic rays in Earth's atmosphere are intensifying.  The   
   ongoing increase, which has been tracked since early 2015, will likely   
   accelerate in the months and years ahead as the solar cycle swings away from   
   Solar Max. This result is of interest to everyone from mountain climbers and   
   air travelers to operators of high-altitude drones. Visit Spaceweather.com for   
   more information.   
       
   MORNING SKY SHOW: The five brightest planets in the solar system have lined up   
   in the morning sky for a naked-eye display of rare beauty.  In a few days, the   
   Moon will begin to hop from planet to planet, acting as a helpful guide to   
   novice sky watchers.  Check Spaceweather.com for dates and sky maps.
