Just Been Outside With Tilly For Twenty Minutes.

It's a lovely starry night. I saw Ursa Minor, Orion and Cassiopeia. There is a planet at ESE but don't know which it is. Mars? I couldn't see Ursa Major.

What else could I see? Any help?

A psychiatrist?

Why? Don't you stargaze, Shoota?

Depends who left their curtains open as you passed.

Mars in the night sky (to the south?)

Been admiring Venus in the morning sky this last week or so (06.30ish); exceedingly bright in the east/soth east)

Thanks, Mamya. I had forgotten what that website was called.

Yes Venus is stunning just before dawn currently, almost like a Christmas star!
My phone app isn't showing any planet in the E/S sky at the moment

I think it's sirius you're mistaking for a planet - that's roughly ESE at the moment and low in the sky.
