Good Morning Cat,

Me too. This morning the full moon was so bright, it cast shadows in our bedroom.

My wife got up and lowered the shades ( for the last two nights).

Hoping we have a astronomer here.

Around 3:00 to 4:00 as I look to the south I see a very bright star or planet. It must be two or more as they appear to be multiple bright spots in alignment.

It is unusually bright!

Star, planet, or space station?

Just answered my own question"

The bright “star” ascending in the east at nightfall is really a planet, the largest of the planets in our solar system, Jupiter. This planet’s opposition – when Earth flew between Jupiter and the sun – was on September 26. A dark sky reveals the bright planet directly south of the Great Square of the constellation Pegasus. Between the Great Square and bright planet is a pretty, but faint group of 6 stars known as the Circlet in the constellation Pisces. Chart via John Jardine Goss/ EarthSky.
