Re: [RT] Off Topic Stargazing

Bill,
 
   Venus is often seen around sunrise or 
sunset and is often called the morning or evening star. It appears very bright 
in the sky. Dollars to donuts you are looking at Venus.  About once per 
month, the Moon and Venus line up together in the sky.  This will happen 
again late on Sept 9 and the wee hours of Sept. 10. <FONT face=Arial

Cheers,
Norman

  I am 
  looking for some stargazing help from some of our astronomical type 
  traders.
  <SPAN

  Is 
  there a website that would show the early morning sky for a particular time 
  and location?
  <SPAN 
  class=898050913-20082002> 
  I 
  live on the coast in South Carolina and this morning about 6:00 AM EST there 
  was a very bright object in the eastern morning sky approximately 45 degrees 
  above the horizon.  It appeared to be a very bright star that was maybe 5 
  times brighter than a normal star.  In addtion to the normal star color 
  there was very red color that was clearly visible to the naked 
  eye.
  <SPAN 
  class=898050913-20082002> 
  At 
  first I thought it was an airplane, but it stayed in the same relative 
  position all morning until it disappeared just after 
  daybreak.
  <SPAN 
  class=898050913-20082002> 
  Any 
  help will be greatly appreciated.
