Reetio people, Im not trying to pull the wool over you eyes and definately arnt trying to troll.
However practically every night i go out for a smoke (A ciggarette, Ive never smoked funky baccy in my life) and i see this star, from where im looking from my back porch its the brightest in the Sky, But i swear i can see something above it, ive got good eyesight and need to see it with Binoculars sometimes but it seems like a small Cylindrical Object with a Red light at the base, Behind yet just above the star.
Now i dont have any Camera that can take a picture of it, it probably requires Zoom or high definition.
So forgive this ridiculasly crude scetch of what im seeing, Below:

I live in England, And relative to me this star is South-South-west As the night goes on.
I dont proclaim to have any knowledge of the stars whatwoever, So for all arguments sake i could probably be seeing Mars
But i was just wondering if any-one else had seen this sort of thing in the sky, Obviously it would be in a different area of the sky depending On where you live, But yeah any queries?

Again forgive the Crudeness and simplicity of my post

Umm?... I don't know stars? Maybe the moon? An occasional plane in the distance?

It is probably Jupiter, and if you live away from a population center or there is not much light polution, the other one right next to it is Uranus. They have been visible and moving in a sort of unison lately.

You can confirm it, if on the left of it you see Orion's belt and Sirius following closely behind.

Sirius is easy to spot as it always follows the three most recognizable stars in the northern sky, Sirius is the brightest star seen on earth, so anything burning brighter than sirius are usually, Jupiter, Mars or Venus.

But currently Jupiter has been the one everyone notices in the sky.

I can only think of it being Jupiter, its been very visible for months now although it wont be for much longer as it moves away again. Earlier in the year Uranus was visible just behind Jupiter, but im not sure (from your description) if its that what your seeing as its very hard to see without a telescope or good binoculars.

May i suggest you download Stellarium its free and a very good tool to have while viewing the sky.

Defiantly a planet though! No question about that.

I fecking hope its jupiter Thank god somone knows something about planets, Yeah ive got no Light pollution here, Clear skys most of the time.
I treid working stellarium but i lose interest in fIDDLY programs very quickly
Your probably right with Jupiter.
I just thought id mention it with all this stuff going on about cylindrical objects in the Sky

I think I'm seeing the same one every morning around 4:30 am only it's in the East. (Southern USA - Memphis, TN) One morning a couple of weeks ago I was stumbling through the house (half-awake) without the lights on and had to do a double-take, cause I thought for a second that someone was in the yard with a flashlight. It's really a big star/planet. Pretty cool

I usually see the ISS every night when its clear out. Looks like a star but visibly moves, albeit very slowly.
Taking a guess, probably the iss.

Either Jupiter/Uranus, or Sirius?
As for the rectangle, I have no idea.

because of the serious air pollution that we can seldom see any star in the sky every time when i look into the sky it always seem that there are something burning so the sky are always in the red colour
