Answer 3

It's the planet Jupiter. When it first started coming over the horizon at 2 or 3am, I was tempted to think it was Venus because of how bright it is, but I knew that it was too far from the Sun in the sky to be Venus, and I remembered where Jupiter was, and realized that's what it was.

I was going to go look at it in my telescope tonight, but it's too cloudy.

Answer 4

That would be the planet Jupiter, the largest one in the Solar System.

Answer 5

Yup, Jupiter.
