Last week Texans were treated to the Northern Lights in the nighttime sky. This week you can see a comet. It might not be seen again for another 80,000 years.

Last week Louisiana was treated to the Northern Lights in the nighttime sky. This week you can see a comet. It might not be seen again for another 80,000 years.

The effects of a giant solar storm are headed for the Louisiana skies tonight and Friday. It could result in an epic Northern Lights display in the Deep South.

Louisiana has got another reason to look up, a star system some 3,000 light years away is set to explode. Here's how to see it happen.

Live in the path of totality? Don't miss the 2024 Total Solar Eclipse in Central and East Texas.

Coming soon, Louisiana can expect a heavenly fly-by as the "Devil" comet makes a pass by Earth. It only comes around once every 71 years.

It seems like we are on the road to knowing what's going on in our galaxy by reading disturbances in the force using cool lasers.

Just to put it into perspective, the last time a the great conjunction (totally what it's called, btw) this close happened - it was March 4, 1226.

With so many troubles and worries down here on this pale blue dot we call Earth, perhaps we should turn our gaze skyward this month.

It will also be a "Penumbral Lunar Eclipse," which means that full view of the moon will obstructed as it glides through the faint shadow of the Earth.

This beautiful celestial event is the kickoff to an awesome year of sky-watching.

The cold moon in and of itself is simply the last full moon of the year, but the timing of the December's is uncanny.
