Perhaps there is an optical blemish in your telescope causing you to see what looks like a line in space. Try looking at a streetlight in the distance with a similar brightness to see if it is still there. If you are convinced you are seeing something unusual, call any local telescope club or university astronomy department and tell them what you are seeing.

How did Galileo discover the planet Venus's?
He did not discover the planet Jupiter. He only used his telescope to see its four largest moons. The planet is and always has been visible to the naked eye and was known to people since ancient times.
What is some things to look at with your ordinary telescope?
There are literally millions of things that can be viewed through your telescope, but among the easiest are Venus, which is visible either just after the sun sets or just prior to it's rise (depending on the time of year) and is the brightest natural light in the sky, and Jupiter, which is usually visible directly above and slightly to the south (if you live in the northern hemisphere), and is visible to the naked eye. When viewed through a telescope, you can even see the moons.
Can the planet Venus be seen at night with a telescope?
Yes, easily. It can be seen with the naked eye easily too. However, Venus is only visible either just before dawn or just after sunset; it is never visible in the middle of the night.
What is the DATE you can see planet Venus and Saturn without a telescope?
You can see Venus in the evening sky just after sunset and Saturn in the early morning sky just before sunrise. The visibility of planets depends on their position relative to the Sun, so the best times to see them without a telescope change throughout the year.
How did Galileo learn about the universe what was his great discovery about the planets?
Galileo observed that the planets Mercury and Venus pass through phases just like the Moon. The only way this could happen is if they circled the Sun, and not the Earth. Most importantly, he discovered that Jupiter had four moons. In the 1609, Galileo heard about a new invention called a telescope. He decided to build a telescope and use it to look at the Universe. That is just what he did and that is how he learned about the universe.
How do you use the telescope on Astro Knights Island?
You do not have to look through the telescope. It just familiarizes you with the solar system : the three planets (jungle, ice, and fire) and the nearby moon.
Who first realized that the planets go around the sun.?
Nicholas Copernicus is believed to be the first to propose the heliocentric model of the solar system, as it is called. However, the real proof was observed by Galileo Galilei. Using the telescope he greatly improved, he observed that Venus goes through all of the phases, just like the moon. If Venus and the sun were orbiting Earth, that would be impossible.
What planet is bright in the night sky?
Venus is usually the planet that is most thought to be a UFO, but all planets visible without a telescope or binoculars can be mistaken for UFOs.
What is the difference between elliptical spiral irregular galaxies?
Just their shapes, as see through a telescope.
What would be a good tongue twister with the word telescope?
Here's a good one- Terry tried looking through her turquoise toy telescope. Just think of a person that starts with the letter and have them do something with the object that also starts with that letter.
If you want to see Venus were should you point your telescope?
Sorry; you JUST missed it! For the past few months, Venus has been the "Morning Star" rising before the Sun. But Venus is too close to the Sun to be visible now (December 27, 2009) and is about to go behind the Sun. By the middle of February, 2010, Venus will become the "Evening Star" setting just after the Sun does. By the first week in March, 2010, it should be easily visible in the west right after sunset. But Jupiter is easily visible in the southwest right after sunset, and Mars rises about 9 PM local time. To be honest, Venus isn't much to see in a telescope; it is TOO bright, and is essentially featureless. There isn't anything there to see. Point your telescope at Jupiter, and even with a fairly small telescope, you'll be able to see the four "Galilean moons", Ganymede, Callisto, Io and Europa. If your 'scope is a little bigger, you might be able to make out the colored bands in the clouds, and maybe even the Great Red Spot.
How do you get abducted on The Sims?
You have to look through the telescope at night. I'm not sure but I think the better the telescope, the better chance you have of seeing aliens. Also, if you just want to see a person get abducted, go on the ready-made town Strangetown and make Vidcund look through the telescope. This only works if you have not played this family before.
