[/quote] Jupiter varies in it's brightness based on several factors. All planets appear brighter/larger when they are closer to the Earth. Jupiter ranges from a faint orangish spot to a thick orange sphere depending. Right now it is a little larger than average I would say. [/quote]
Original Message
Is anyone else noticing Sirius glowing incredibly bright tonight and flickering intensely? Could anyone in North America confirm if they see this or not? My wife and I noticed it at about 9:25pm CDT.
Sirius is located just below Orion, and is visible in the southern sky right now. It looks CRAZY... I realize this is an atmospheric disturbance but none of the other stars are having this effect that I can tell.
