What is that twinkly thing in the sky?

Venus, I think.

I see it when I look out of the back kitchen window---very bright.

Why is it all rainbow colours?

Yes, it'll be Venus, a planet.

An optical illusion makes it appear with colours.

Various gases in the atmosphere I suspect.

I think this explain it really well, if it works 😂

I know exactly what you mean, it seems bigger and brighter then it’s ever been before. I thought it was something else but I don’t know what

Maybe as a result of the cleaner skies due to the reduction in planes, cars etc

I thought it was a plane at first because of the way it was flashing but it didn’t move. Then I got the binoculars and it looked crescent shaped.

Then ai thought it was a meteor 😱

Then I got to the aliens.......

I can go to bed if it’s Venus😁

Wow, cleaner skies. That’s a thought!

The drop in pollution in Venice has been noticeable, apparently, so why not in the atmosphere too?

The space station went past about 8.30 was visible for 4 mins.

Last night was the birth of the new moon, Nissan/Aries.
According to our lunar calendar.
Could have something to do with it. But also lack of pollution as others have said.

Could it have been the International Space Station??

Its venus, its so lovely!!

ISS times
