My daughter and I just spent about 45 minutes in the front yard trying to figure out how to use our telescope. We finally were able to see one planet, I think. Maybe Venus. We've decided we definitely need some help figuring out how to use our telescope!! Anyway, here's my question. We're in Orem. When we looked east, above Cascade Mountain, we saw a rather bright star-like object. When we looked at it through the binoculars, it appeared to be either yellow or white with flashing green and red lights. We assumed it had to be an airplane, but we continued to watch it for awhile. After 30 minutes, it had only moved slightly higher in the sky. It couldn't possibly have been an airplane, because it didn't get closer to us or move to the right or left. Does anyone have any idea what it might have been? I just looked outside again, and it's still there, if anyone wants to go check it out and give me an opinion. Thanks! Dottie
