Brighter than any star, but,not as bright as Venus.
Not even close.
Still, hope to get a look this weekend.
“Brighter than any star, but, not as bright as Venus.”
Saw it on a camp out in a VERY dark sky area on Saturday and it was definitely brighter than Venus. It was so bright it’s color was noticeably red and I thought it was Mars until I check star charts. And it was way more bright than Mars usually is.
