***ELPALLSKY Readers... We are getting many inquiries about a bright light in the morning sky toward the eastern horizon. This is likely the planet Venus currently shining at a magnitude -4 which makes it the brightest object in the sky other than our moon. The telltale sign that what you are seeing is in fact Venus is simple...it doesn't move. If you observe movement but slower with a more steady brightness than you would expect for a meteor, what you are seeing is likely a pass of the International Space Station (ISS), usually lasting much longer than a meteor. If you see a bright object which moves quickly across a portion of the sky, especially if it exhibits flashes (beginning, middle or end of flight), PLEASE REPORT IT TO ELPALLSKY by either e-mail wxtx01@gmail.com, or by logging into the Chat Window as "guest" and leaving a description with the time, your location and what you saw. Thank you for visiting ELPALLSKY! Please bookmark for quick future reference.***
