   METEOR ALERT:  This weekend, Earth will pass through a stream of debris from   
   Comet 209P/LINEAR. If forecasters are correct, the encounter could produce an   
   outburst of bright meteors numbering more than 200 per hour.  Most models   
   agree that peak rates should occur between the hours of 0600 UT and 0800 UT (2   
   a.m. and 4 a.m. EDT) on Saturday morning, May 24th, a time frame that favors   
   observers in North America.  It is worth noting, however, that Earth has never   
   encountered this stream of debris before, so forecasters cannot be certain of   
   their predictions.  The display could be a complete dud, a fantastic "meteor   
   storm," or anything in between.  Visit http://spaceweather.com for full   
   coverage.   
       
   SOLAR FLARE ALERTS:  Solar Max has arrived.  Would you like a call when the   
   sun erupts?  Solar flare alerts are available from http://spaceweathertext.com   
   (text) and http://spaceweatherphone.com (voice).
