   GEOMAGNETIC STORM:  A solar wind stream hit Earth's magnetic field during the   
   early hours of April 30th, sparking a G1-class geomagnetic storm.  Northern   
   Lights descended as far south as Michigan in the United States. High-latitude   
   sky watchers should remain alert for auroras (http://spaceweatherphone.com)   
   tonight as the solar wind continues to blow. Photos of the April 30th display   
   are highlighted on today's edition of http://SpaceWeather.com.   
       
   TRACK THE SPACE SHUTTLE:  Space shuttle Endeavour is scheduled to lift off   
   from the Kennedy Space Center on Monday, May 2nd, on a two-week mission to the   
   International Space Station.  The shuttle and station will make many visible   
   passes over Europe and North America during the mission--the trick is knowing   
   when to look.  You can turn your cell phone into a field tested shuttle   
   tracker by downloading our Simple Flybys app.  Details at http:/
