Sighting: To the naked eye, very bright star. Closer than the rest. East 109 degree (estimate). Moon and three Orion stars far to the left of this and appeared farther away. I look at the night sky every night and this was not in the usual rotation. I looked at it for about 15 minutes (8:30-8:45) and it did not appear to move.

Location: Hartford, Connecticut, United States

Images: The first image is zoomed in, the second image is a screenshot of the first, the final image is zoomed out to show you what I saw with my eyes. Absolutely no editing done.

    Sorry I wrote moon appeared to the left but I meant to say right. Which I believe would be South. (I’m not a pro at spacial awareness sorry team)
