- The sun rises in the east and sets in the west.\n\n- If there is broken cloud in the morning we may look to the west and see red light reflecting back from the cloud, i.e. 'red sky in the morning'. As the clouds are coming towards us there must be a chance of rain, at least an increased chance compared with the cloudless period we had just enjoyed.\n\n- Likewise for 'red sky at night'. If we see red clouds in the evening they will be in the east and have already passed us by, giving a good chance of clear skies and fine weather ahead.

I believe it is still a morning star.  Note that when Venus is brighter as a morning star than a evening star.  As a morning star, it has an apparent magnitude of around -4.5.  As an evening star it has an apparent magnitude of around -3.7.  However, not many people are up before sunrise to watch this event, so we most likely can only see it as an evening star which is next year.\n\nAlso, it is not a star, it is a planet.  The term "star" is used because it essentially looks like a brilliant star.

Most likely Venus, as those above me have stated, but Jupiter is also a possibility.  \n\nStarmaps are readily available on the internet, and that would tell you for sure. \n\nHowever, a more fun way to find out would be to take a telescope outside and look at the planet.  Even a very low-end model telescope will have the resolution to see the moons of Jupiter.  Watch it for a week, if you don't see any moons or the giant red spot, it's Venus.

For CA and west coast its best to view in the hours before dawn Sat and Sun. Although I think I read you might be able to see something around 8PM - 10PM Saturday, Look towards the east.

It should be visible from California at about 5:00am. Look for it near the constellation Leo.

Yes. Jupiter is currently high in the sky during the evening and in the western sky as day approaches. Venus, much brighter, is in the eastern sky just before daybreak.

Venus. This time of year though Venus is visible in the early morning so if you see this "star" at night rising from the east it may be Jupiter. It's quite bright as well.

If you are on the same planet that I am, yes!\n\nThe earth rotates counterclockwise on its axis. Therefore the sun will always "rise" in the east. The reason I put rise in quotes...b/c the sun doesn't actually rise. It is from our perspective that it seems to rise.\n\nThe only way you will see the sun rise in the west...\n1. you are on Venus (clockwise rotation)\n2. a major astroid strikes earth & changes earth's rotation so that it goes clockwise. But the problem here is that your chances of still being around to see it is nil.\n\nAlso, all the planets in our solar system have a counterclockwise revolution path around the sun.

Betelgeuse is a constituent of Orion, which should be visible in the evening at this time of year.  Use a star chart to see exactly which star of Orion it is.

The Geminids ramp up over a few days, and should be visible most of the night, from around 10PM to dawn. Basically you need a location where you can see as many stars as possible.

OK, I just went look outside.  At midnight Orion will be nearly straight up.  Three bright stars in a line are Orion's belt.
