November 29, 2012 - 09:48 AM Re: LARGE VERY BRIGHT CROSS-SHAPED PLANET or STAR is visible in the Western Sky Yes. It seems like Venus at its brightest. It's in the right quadrant of the sky. But why is it cross shaped? The pictures I am seeing just show a round white object or the disk of of the plant. I am seeing this through the binoculars (ignore the zeros): It looks like a cross with an empty ring around it. The planet is obviously in the center. It is very bright. Why does it look like this? Reflected light? Pollution over LA? Our Atmosphere? Anyone else seeing the cross pattern around venus? Love, Joe from S. Cal |
