Scientists can predict the position of planets in the night sky using mathematical models based on our understanding of planetary motion. By taking into account the planet's orbit, speed, and gravitational interactions with other celestial bodies, scientists can accurately calculate its position at any given time. This information allows them to forecast when and where the planet will be visible from Earth.
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.
Tonight on September 4th, 2010, the bright object you see in the eastern sky is likely the planet Jupiter. Jupiter is one of the brightest objects in the night sky and is often visible to the naked eye.
The planet Venus. It is often the third brightest object in the sky after the sun and moon. It is referred to as the morning or evening star (though its not a star).
The evening star is another name for the planet Venus. Venus is often visible in the evening sky and is one of the brightest objects in the night sky, earning it the nickname "evening star."
why do scientists aew able to predict where in the night sky a planet will be visible
Venus is the brightest planet in the sky. It is often referred to as the "evening star" when visible in the western sky after sunset or the "morning star" when visible in the eastern sky before sunrise.

At midnight lately, the planet Saturn has been visible in the southern sky. Saturn reaches opposition in July, making it more prominent and easy to spot 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.
Venus' atmosphere makes the planet bright with sun rays reflecting against it.
Tonight on September 4th, 2010, the bright object you see in the eastern sky is likely the planet Jupiter. Jupiter is one of the brightest objects in the night sky and is often visible to the naked eye.
Venus is currently visible as a very bright evening star in the night sky after sunset. It is the third brightest object in the sky after the sun and the moon. Venus is often referred to as the "evening star" when it is seen in the west after sunset.

Mars is easily visible high in the evening sky this season. ============================================ Also ... Saturn is rising in the southeast, visible by 9 PM, almost due south by 12 Midnight. Mercury, Venus, and Jupiter are there, but all appear too close to the sun to be easily visible, for at least several more weeks.
Jupiter is most visible in the night sky during the months of June and July. This is when the planet is closest to Earth and appears brightest.
