has anyone seen that really bright object in sky over the past few weeks it looks like a star but its too bright could it be a satellite?
and did anyone see the moon tonight it was massive like bruce almighty.

It seems that there was a really big one in December
NASA - Biggest Full Moon of the Year
I wasn't aware that it looks bigger sometimes - called Perigee Moon
The link explains it

I heared off the tv that the star is infact " venus "

Isnt it the space station the ISS
let me check
if its the ISS it will be in the south west

 

[Polly_45]

Right now, venus is at 0h 16 43.0s x 5 deg 9' 0.0"
so could quite possibly be Venus,but i know the ISS has been visible for last couple of months

Tonights moon if you looked closely enough you would see the shape of a rabbit

I saw that too, it was on Breakfast TV I think last week or the week before

I'm pretty sure its Venus too, think its usually the brightest object we see. You can see sirius "the dog star" too but thats not quite as bright!

Best Regards - Taggy

 

[ozzypostie]

i dont know its only been there for a few months very bright

 

[K.S.H]

its not the ISS that travels very fast, not stationary like a planet/star appears to

 

[MargaretR]

It won't be the secret Planet X - that is sneaking in - and is only visible in the Antarctic using infrared

 

[thindle]

You need to stay in that state of confusion.. Jaysay or is it hear say? Your slogan is rubbish

 

[emamum]

[ozzypostie]

[ozzypostie]

Wouldnt be too bad if I could see it. Too much light polution to get a good look with my telescope. The low big moon is good though.
