Yellow object in the night sky? any ideas?

Tnx Brucez.

The second link will be very useful, my son (10) often wants to go out and look at the night sky/stars and I'm a n00b to it, so this may prove invaluable.

If you are interested in astronomy and want a constant gentle reminder of what is currently out there to be seen, you may be interested in this Sky screen saver which shows you the current position of sun, moon, planets, and stars from the latitude and longitude you enter in the settings. I've had it on my desktop for years now.

Same site also has some fun freeware if you are interested in historical positions of sky objects.
