A relectant crawl out of bed at 04.00 gave me excellent views of the planetary alignment between the Moon, Mars, Jupiter and the constellation of Taurus, with its bright red star Aldebaran. The Moon was snuggled up to Pollux, one of the 'Heavenly Twins' in Gemini.
At around 05.00 a bright satellite of mag -2 or brighter passed north to south overhead (hence not the ISS!) I checked with 'Heavens Above' and no such object was scheduled.
