FIREBALL ALERT: On Sunday morning, Jan. 15th, between
approximately 1:56 and 1:59 a.m. PST (0956 - 0959 UT),
a brilliant fireball will streak over northern
California and Nevada. It's NASA's Stardust capsule,
returning to Earth with samples of dust from Comet Wild 2.
Observers along the flight path should have a marvelous
view of this rare man-made meteor. Radio signals
reflected from the capsule's ionized tail may be heard from
a much wider area--hundreds to thousands of miles
away. Visit //spaceweather.com for maps and
observing tips.

Sounds fun :) if you all get a pic post it :)
