For all of you Woo-woos, this is not an alien spaceship, only a lonely planet named Venus.

MORNING PLANETS: The planet Venus, which crossed from one side of the Sun to the other on Nov. 1st, is now a bright morning 'star.' Look for it hanging low in the eastern sky just before dawn. Now that Venus has emerged from the glare of the Sun, you can see four planets before local sunrise: Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Visit spaceweather.com for sky maps and for pictures of Venus, which looks like a thin crescent through amateur telescopes.
AURORA WATCH: On Nov. 9th, an M4-class explosion near sunspot 180 hurled a lopsided coronal mass ejection toward Earth. Sky watchers should be alert for auroras on Nov. 11th or 12th when the cloud sweeps past our planet.
