    astronomy news This is the time of shortest days and longest nights not bad for astronomy, if the skies are clear more than 12 hours of darkness,  
    http://www.wa.gov.au/perthobs/astronews.html
    
    Extractions: Many people are mystified by the movements of the planets. Venus and Jupiter, for instance. Being the brightest starlike objects in the western evening sky, these two planets have captured people's attention lately with their apparent close approach. They're nowhere near each other! Venus is about 165 million km from here, and Jupiter about 936 million km. Venus looks mighty bright because it's close to us. Jupiter is much bigger, but much further away. Planets closer to the Sun orbit faster, and those further out go slower. All of the planets, including Earth, orbit in an easterly direction. We're overtaking Jupiter on the inside track, so it seems to slip a bit further west each night. Venus is overtaking us on the inside, and therefore isn't slipping to the west - it's more or less keeping pace with us, and seems to hold station in the western sky each evening while Jupiter and the stars go slowly scrolling past it. If this explanation doesn't gel for you, try drawing a sketch showing the positions of Venus and Jupiter and the stars nearby. Within a couple of days, you'll see how Venus has shifted compared to Jupiter and the stars.

    Extractions: July 10, 2003 A wild jet of x-rays is shooting out from the Vela pulsar, located about 1,000 light years away. This is the most erratic stellar jet ever discovered, traveling at half the speed of light and reaching half a light year into space. The jet is also changing rapidly: within the space of two weeks, noticeable changes in shape and intensity can be seen, as pictured below. The bright rings or bubbles seen in the pulsar are now believed to be shockwaves resulting from the jet's motion. NASA Launches the Mars Opportunity Rovers July 7, 2003 There are currently four spacecraft on their way to Mars. The most recent traveler is NASA's Mars Opportunity rover, which will land near the Martian equator in January 2004. Opportunity's twin spacecraft, Spirit, was launched on June 10, and will land in a crater on the opposite side of the planet from Opportunity. The main goal of the Opportunity and Spirit missions is to study evidence of water in the rocks and soil of the Martian surface. The European Space Agency launched its first planetary exploration mission on June 2, when Mars Express lifted off. In July 1998, Japan also launched its first planetary satellite, called Nozomi, but it encountered some problems which are making the trip to Mars last a lot longer than was expected.
