OSIRIS-REX RETURN CAPSULE–NAKED-EYE VISIBILITY? This weekend, NASA’s OSIRIS-REx spacecraft will fly by Earth and drop off a sample of asteroid Bennu for researchers to the study. The return capsule will enter Earth’s atmosphere on Sunday morning, Sept. 24, at 7:42 a.m. PDT. Traveling about 27,650 mph, it will streak across Nevada before parachuting to Earth in the Utah desert.

Will the re-entry be visible to the human eye? Maybe. Seventeen years ago, meteor astronomer Dr. Peter Jenniskens of the SETI Institute led a NASA airborne mission to observe a similar re-entry of the Stardust capsule. He and his colleagues captured spectacular photos of the re-entry fireball. However, Stardust re-entered at night, OSIRIS-REx will do so in daylight, thus reducing its visibility.

Jenniskens believes the OSIRIS-REx capsule *might* be visible to the naked-eye from a narrow corridor in eastern Nevada: “The OSIRIS-REx sample return capsule has similar mass and only slightly lower entry speed than the 2006 Stardust sample return capsule. Based on that, the OSIRIS-REx capsule will reach -5.1 magnitude for about 10 seconds around peak heating when viewed from the front at a distance of 100 km. Compare that to Venus at its brightest: -4.5 magnitude.”

“Around peak heating, the capsule will pass over the town of Austin, Nevada,” he continues. ” Hence, visual observers in northeast Nevada who are located near Austin or further east as far as Elko or Ely, will see the capsule from the front or side and away from the rising Sun and should be able to see the entry by the naked eye, if the sky is clear.”

GEOMAGNETIC STORM WATCH (G1): Over the past few days, a series of M-class solar flares may have hurled multiple CMEs toward Earth. In fact, so many CMEs have left the sun since Sept. 20th, analysts are having trouble sorting them out. Somewhere between two and four appear capable of grazing Earth’s magnetic field between Sept. 23rd and Sept. 25th. Minor G1-class geomagnetic storms are possible on all those days. Aurora alerts: SMS Text

THE TRECENA OF NIGHT/AKBAL: A Higher Dream we Know is Meant to come True

Visit the 13-Day Trecena Guide Page for the “Tzolk’in Field Guide: A Daily Practice for Personal Discernment.” My gift for the Tzolk’in round offers an overview for each 13-day trecena and the aspects of each day of the Tzolk’in round. The page also offers a link to resources for your own practice of counting the days to conceive your own discernment of the Meaning of Time.

NEW SEASON – VOLUME 2: Tzolk’in Seasons 3 and 4 (PUBLISHED SEPTEMBER 20, 2020)

NOTE: You can also look at dates from a different direction. What is the Destiny Kin number of your day sign’s 3rd tone? You may have overlooked a life-changing day. Use the Kin Calculator offered on the Daykeeper’s Resource Page for a date six years before or after. If you are just starting to count the days and don’t have a journal from the last round, when something major happens in your life you can look to see if there was a major event on that same date before. You can also look for Signs in the “distance of time” – the number of days between one day and another, from the Time and Date Calculator linked on the resources page. Example – 33 days is a symbol of a day that you actualize the Truth from the beginning date.

Galactic Tone 6: Flow. Six is responsiveness, and the art of negotiation. It is the movement of volume through space that creates time. This energy in action is like the art of dance or a great athlete in motion. Six facilitates dynamic developments in all aspects of life.

Star/LAMAT: Star energy is multiplication of all things to abundance. Star has been associated with the fertility of rabbits for its ability to multiply. As each sun in the sky, Star persons shine equally in all directions. This natural tendency of harmony and balance can become compulsion, motivating Star to be too agreeable and too generous, rejected gifts cause fear and resentment. When a Star believes it has been given too much, they are weakened or may even collapse. In this “Black Hole” state, Stars are prone to verbal jousting and arguing to force their point of view on everyone.

A GOOD DAY TO: Ask for Abundance in all relations. 

Cherokee, Rabbit/NOQUI’SEGWA: Symbol-Venus, The Morning Star cycle of 260 days and Evening Star cycle of another 260 days, inspired the 13 numbers, 20 Day sign Sacred Calendar.  Rabbit is the Trickster of Cherokee culture, matching the Coyote in other nations.  The personification of Light and New Life, Sunrise, the scion of the Moon-Father of earth children, the Rabbit is fertility, be fruitful and multiply.  Represents softness, gentleness and vulnerability. LAMAT– Totem Rabbit.  Energies of re-birth, regeneration, ripening, harvest and abundance.  This person is overflowing with love energy in all areas of life.  Spiritual growth is natural and with ease due to the unconditional love energy that flows.
