this is a stupid question, but is it discernible to all, i mean not sure what i saw last evening, but it was incredibly bright, so wasn't sure if it was a distant planet, not up on my astronomy these days.
When I put up the time stated that is the time that it will come over. It is always exact time stated. It is very very bright and just glides across the sky . The 3 minute sighting tonight should be good if skies are clear.
