For about the past 2 weeks, 2 separate times I've seen a VERY bright light (couldn't be a star) I will call a planet for lack of better term.
This was taking place between 9:30-10 p.m. in Land O' Lakes, FL the first time I saw it. I was on my way to get chinese food, and noticed it in the sky as it was very bright. I was heading West/NW to the chinese place in a semi-straight line but I was swerving from trying to keep sight of it in case it zoomed away. I know we can usually see venus and it can get bright this time of year I've heard from some guy who might've just been trying to be smart in front of his wife, but this was not in the area where I ever see venus, and I also saw venus at the time he told me that and even pointed it out near the moon (somewhat) and he's saying "uhh it's pluto." and walked into the liquor store.
---I was in a VERY lit wal-mart shopping plaze where no stars in the sky were visible besides of course the moon, and this "planet" the opposite direction of the moon which now was almost overheard and didn't seem nealry high enough in altitutde to actually be a planet.
40 Minutes later, after eatting back home, my friend was over on the back porch and I leaned over and saw it was still visible and pointed it out to him to which he exclaimed "damn, that's (*%#$ bright, WTF" Then we conversed more and leaned 1 minute later to see it had disappeared.
A few days later in a parking lot very similar to the one I followed it to the first time, (my work) I saw it again, bright as could be (like 3 planes with their brights on pointed at you from a higher distanc 30-45,000ft.) approx.
Again it was visible to me both times in Pasco County Florida on the West Cost near Tampa and the Gulf of Mexico and was wondering if it is just a planet in view this time of the year or what, and why it rotates out of view in 1 minutes,
