Morning, meaning 5:30am when I walk the dogs. At my house, Sun's still below the horizon, and the cloudless night sky is pretty spectacular here, very little light pollution.
masraum, I can generally see the Big Dipper, but even though I could see some stars, much of the sky was obscured by clouds, and I couldn't tell if I was looking at that constellation, but naked eye, no telescope. My understanding is that September 9 was supposed to be the brightest the supernova got, and I saw a fairly bright object (planet-like) where I don't recall one being, but the weather has precluded star gazing for some time, so it might not be the supernova. September 9 was supposed to be peak brightness, but if it is clear the next few mornings, I'll know.
