Just walked out side, and noticed this very large bright object about 35-40 degrees up due west of phoenix.....I am pretty much in the current flight path of skyharbor....and though this was a plane with landing lights. However, i watched it a few more minutes and it is standing steady.....larger than any star or planet, and a lot brighter. Anyone astronomers in the area know what this might be?
Stellarium is a free open source planetarium for your computer. It shows a realistic sky in 3D, just like what you see with the naked eye, binoculars or a telescope.
It is being used in planetarium projectors. Just set your coordinates and go.
can anyone identify
