Vaati   11 #2 Posted September 23, 2015 (edited) It's the Planet Venus you can see. Mars should also be visible in the next couple of days as well. Can see Venus rather clear this morning as well.

You point it at the sky and it shows you what stars/planets you are looking at.  Or just SkyMap for iOS users. I love that I have to work early in a morning, walking to the car look up and the sky is clear, thousands upon thousands of stars visible, it's so peaceful.
