I have never seen anything like this. From my deck just north east of los angeles downtown. The moon is up bright and,, true to form, wahing out all astronomical phenomenon anywhere near it. Except for this extremely bright anomolous star or planet-like object. I confirmed with wife as guard against insanity. What am I seeing? Please...I just said mars because the database wont take unknown planet or star or just question mark.
