This fall and winter season of 2001 has blessed skywatchers with sights to thrill, amaze and astound for years to come.

Across the North America, skywatchers from as far south as texas and as far north as Alaska have had the lovely sites of the Aurora Borealis (aka Northern Lights) filling their skies this season.

November brought us out to see the Leonids Meteor Shower. Around four in the morning eastern time, an average of 1500 meteors an hour shattered through our atmosphere, providing a delightful shower that we won't expect to see again until about 2099.
Some of the images of these meteors were captured and can be viewed to the right.

Early this fall, we were blessed with the visions of Saturn, Venus and Jupiter, able to be seen by the naked eye, and a lovely eclipse. Catch a glimpse of these snapshots on this page as well.

If you catch images of the heavens, please feel free to submit them for all to see by writing to submissions@astarotology.com.
