Ok, So I was out tonight (its half 12 here, UK) Trying to catch a glimpse of some meteors before its peak on tuesday, and I saw about 4 in 45 mins! hehe
But, I saw a Very bright star slowly rising in the night sky, The first thing I thought was Jupiter, because it was the next brightest thing in the sky next to the moon!
I got my telescope on it (Which isnt the highest spec telescope) and at first it was just what seemed a bright starm but as I changed the focus, It turned into a shape I can only describe as a "Mini creasant moon"
A bit like this, but really small/blurry - http://img2.travelblog.org/Photos/5703/93701/t/600677-Crescent-moon--Luna-creciente-0.jpg
What was this I was witnessing?
Thanks in advanced =)
