WHY IS IT SO BRIGHT? It looks about 1000x brighter than normal. I thought it was a local floodlight at first. IT'S BRIGHTER THAN THE MOON!!
GO LOOK & REPORT BACK!! WHAT IS GOING ON! Is there some astronomical happening I'm unaware of???

You can see venus from anywhere... but i can't see it
Project big beans, cap this
Sn't da moon?
well you're in Australia. It just rose above the horizon here. WTH IS THIS I'M LOOKING AT?!!
take some photos
THIS IS NOT A DRILL
Venus is the morning star. Guess who is also called "morningstar"?
IT LOOKS LIKE A SUPERNOVA
always americans who post this shit
venus is always super bright
I was wondering why there was an insanely bright star/planet in the sky on my way to work this morning. Guess this was it
take a picture you mong
>tfw an ayylmao-chan princess comes to wed an unlikely guy
Yay
R U Sirius?
I mean, it's pretty bright, but not nearly as bright as you're making it out to be.
venus is bright but this is abnormal.. INSANELY BRIGHT. agreed. I took a pic but my camera can't really capture it relative to anything else. stars don't usually show up in photos but it shows up. not especially exciting to share though. it's still dark here, just looks like a star on camera. it also looks about 20x bigger than normal
I FUCKING SEE IT.
It's way brighter than I thought. It sticks out, even in the light polluted shithole known as NYC area.
Thanks OP. I'll upload webm or pics if you guys want.
venus is always super bright jesus christ americans are dumb
Project big benis happening
do it!! upload! why aren't my replies tagging properly
morons
I saw it today in the morning while getting laundry.
Pretty cool
Somebody notify /sci/ of this retarded thread.
shut yer pie holes eurofags!!! you can't even see this shit anymore, but you should at least glance around the sun and see if you see anything out of the ordinary. maybe wear your leftover eclipse glasses if it'll help
Venus is always the second brightest object in the night sky after the moon, at least for the time that it isn't obscured by the earth. What the fuck is wrong with you have you never looked up at the sly before?
Because Venus shows occasionally plasma discharges and charcteristics of a comet halo. It's an electric effect best described by the plasmacosmology model. It simply means that any object can show comet like effects depending on surface charge in contrast to the charge of solar emissions. There are no "dirty snowballs" in space and space is not electrically neutral.
this is out of the ordinary britbong. it's' never this bright, ever
>Too autistic to realize that this not serious.
>It is the second-brightest natural object in the night sky after the Moon, reaching an apparent magnitude of −4.6 – bright enough to cast shadows at night and, rarely, visible to the naked eye in broad daylight.
it's usually just a little brighter than Sirius. Sirius is up and it's really bright, but venus looks like it just exploded
Earth and Venus are close right now.
Dang I wanna see but I am taking a shit.
WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK...VENUS JUST FLEW OVER MY HOUSE
OLDS HERE?
If you bend over far enough, I bet you can see the moon.
this must be it
It's raining here but the clouds are really bright like they're being lit from above, pretty weird. Also one cloud looks like Elvis Presley.
this
A Venus just flew over my house!
Outside? Are you crazy?
WTF IS GOING ON! surely it's not because of reason romaniaanon posted
bundle your ass up and take a look!!!
DUDE I FUCKING SAW JESSE VENTURA JUST BY LOOKING IN MY TELESCOPE JUST NOW!!!!!!!! The end of the world is near everyone.
I could see it during daytime, this shit isn't normal.
That would be Jupiter. But nice try.
All I see is Ur anus.
It's been like that all week. It's because venus is in retrograde and mars is right behind it. So you see both glowing on top of each other.
Saturn and mercury have been visible and exceptionally bright all week aswell.
You are just a retard. Not political...
sun is coming up, hasn't dimmed AT ALL
Haha u cool
venus and jupiter are visible well into morning light
get this shit off of pol faggot
Mars is not behind Venus right now, it's behind Earth IS TODAY THE DAY OF KEK
Here, learn a little bit about electric effects on planets inside a heliosphere full of charged plasma.
Imagine being so NPC you didn't notice fucking Venus which is visible every fucking day lmao.
Yes it's always that bright. Yes you might just have room temperature IQ for not noticing before.
At a time when both jupiter and Venus are visible, Venus is ALWAYS brighter. Idiot eurotrash.
Why is OP a faggot and didnt take a foto?
Already bright and sunny in fl
>Hoping there's QT aliens who find low quality human neet attractive.
i posted one german user
i know what venus usually looks like. THIS SHIT RIGHT HERE IS ABNORMAL!!
Wait, is that really Venus that I've been seeing in the Eastern sky the past two weeks? I was wondering what stellar entity it was, but considering it's been giving off a white light, I thought it was some kind of satellite or low-orbit aircraft.
did a portal just open up in the firmament
That's actually a giant floating Elvis Presley who strangely looks like a cloud, I wouldn't be concerned about it.
No it's not. It depends on the current solar milieu Venus is passing.
It's electricity, dummy
I noticed this too last night OP.
I've never seen a "star" so bright in the sky, didn't know it was venus.
german user you better go outside at sunset and look at this shit
its not happening
The orbit of Venus is less than 1au, interior to that of the earth. Its brightness changes significantly depending on the relative positions of the earth and Venus. Because its interior it has distinct phases like the moon. You are flipping your shit for no reason.
i disagree
DAY OF KEK
No... fucking seriously you idiots.
We are coming up on a planetary alignment.
Mars and Venus are on top of each other.
Mars was exceptionally bright all last two months. Now venus is in retrograde and exeptionally bright. but mars is glowing with it. It was even brighter the past four nights but you NEETs didn't notice ofc.
This happens all the fucking time during the end of the year, its called astrological cycles.
/thread
I agree. I'm familiar with how bright venus gets but this is more than ever by far.
I'm talking 3-5x bigger than I've ever seen it.
No it's exceptionally bright the past week cause mars is right next/on top of it.
Clearly you are the idiot here just like all these others.
Again not politically related. Take it to x if you fags wanna lap is aliens
I noticed this the last couple mornings too user. It's insanely bright right at sunrise. I don't know if this is normal because I've never really paid much attention to the night sky until recently. On that thought, has anyone else noticed a lot more interest in astronomy lately? Almost everyone I know is becoming obsessed with it.
EASILY 3-5x bigger and brighter
It's many times brighter than that. It's 1pm in Poland now and I can see it no problem in daylight. Something's going on.
wow thanks poland user. finally someone reported back!
ALSO MARS IS NOT BEHIND VENUS RIGHT NOW. look that shit up
Mars isn't on top of Venus from any earth perspective dipshit.
methinks there is no way you could see venus at 1pm normally. SOMETHING IS GOING ON
My friend works at the kansas city observatory.
He has been talking about it all week. It's the brightest time of the year for venus. It's in retrograde as well. It is also shining brighter cause mars is near it...
That's what a literal scientist whos job is to observe celestial bodies has been telling me all week
well pull out your telescope and tell me
what are you going on about. mars is no where near venus right now.
LOOK AT THIS PICTURE BRAINLETS
THE DAY OF KEK APPROACHETH
THE KEKENING IS UPON US
It's not even reached maximum brightness yet
space.com
>As November ends, Venus rises more than three hours before the sun and hangs 30 degrees up at sunrise. All month Venus brightens impressively and in early December it will reach the pinnacle of its magnificent brightness, shining at magnitude -4.9. Through a telescope, the phase of the planet looks most remarkable early in the month. That's when you may be able to glimpse Venus when it's only a few percent illuminated, a hairline crescent close to an arcminute long; about 1/30 the apparent diameter of the moon.
The reflected light of mars at its current proximity to Venus wouldn't significantly change a naked eye observation of Venus at its current proximity from earth. If you aren't full of shit then you are a brainlet who has misunderstood what your mate has told you.
My point was also that mars can never be on top of Venus from an earth perspective. If you don't understand why that is I can't help you. The current location of the planets also means that Venus can't be on top of mars from an earth perspective.
Checked. I LOVE VENUS, BEAUTIFUL
THE DIGITS HAVE SPOKEN
HOLY SHIT GUYS, VENUS JUST FLEW BY MY HOUSE!
ALL HAIL
Mars seems to be about eight Earth diameters away from Venus.
it's shows position not scale
VENUS IS STILL VISIBLE
Space is fake as fuck. If you fall for the coming deception, it's because you weren't seeking the truth of your world before the world sought you.
>hail gaia
ahahahahaha
>planetary alignment
The only thing that worries me about this is the rumor that nukes don't exist and they're actually cosmic events that certain forces guide to the target.
