Yeah, I have been noticing a bright "star" in the north western sky as well here in Waco. I suppose it could be the "north star," but I don't know.

It's about as high in the sky as the star, which I think to be Antares. The star seems to be sparkling red and blue, as if there is two of them (one behind the other), one much closer than the other.
Is it possible that it may be a satellite, or maybe the International Space Station?

Ah, good point. This is so confusing. I look at it every night and I still have no name for it. I guess now that I'm on the hunt, it's only a matter of time before I find out what it is.

I've also been noticing something very bright in the western sky. I don't recall ever seeing a planet get that bright. It was right under the moon a few nights ago. Is it venus?

For at least a month now i have seen this bright thing in the sky every night. I'm pretty sure it's Venus but it's been around for what seems too long for a planet..so i don't know. But I think the bright thing i'm seeing is the same bright thing you're seeing.

Aces where are you at? It could be, but Saturn is closest to the moon right now. If we know where you're at though we can plug it into the MyStars page and find out for sure.
