BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) â Six people have been displaced after a fire ripped through their home early Thursday morning.
The Buffalo Fire Department tells 7 Eyewitness News the fire broke out around 4:30 a.m. in the first floor of a three-unit house on the 900 block of Northampton Street, just a few blocks from the Buffalo Museum of Science.
The flames quickly spread through the house, all the way up to the attic. It did $100,000 in damage to the structure and $60,000 in damage to the contents in the house.
WBFO s Michael Mroziak reports.
The conjunction is the closest observable meeting of the solar system s two largest planets in centuries.
The last time Jupiter and Saturn got this close, from Earth s vantage point, was in the year 1632. However, that conjunction generally couldn t be observed because the planets were positioned too close to the Sun. The last time most humans could observe such a close pairing was in the 13th Century.
Look to the southwest horizon shortly after 5 p.m. Monday to see the Jupiter-Saturn conjunction.
Credit NASA.gov The last time that they were this close, just to put this in historical perspective, was the year 1226. That is 11 years after the Magna Carta was signed, said Tim Collins, Observatory Astronomer at the Buffalo Museum of Science and Community Education Instructor at Williamsville North High School s Spacelab Planetarium.
