		<description>3am... lots of twinkling... I&#039;m thinking Capella. Were you looking east- or northeast-ish?

I remember when I was working the scope at the observatory, we&#039;d get the most phone calls about Cappella (and Venus). Cappella is a pretty bright star, and it rises at this low, shallow angle - staying close to the horizon for a long while. Lower in the sky means more twinkling, and for a bright star like Cappella, it seems to quiver in the sky like angry candy.</description>

		<description>So it&#039;s not August 27, but September 27 (really the 26th) and through my bedroom window 3 am (the baby was awake!) was the most beautiful star I have ever seen! The colors &quot;twinkling&quot; off of it!  I hope you got to see it!  Of course, these clear Wisconsin skies we do see things clearer than most people get to.
Would that be Mars?  I know I am completely astronomically(?) illiterate!</description>
