it? I went out at 7PM PST and they were both pretty low in the
horizon and were 'moving' in unison. Came out well around 11PM PST,
same body. Anyone enightnen me? Thanks for the time. And take care,

Did you notice the color?

Actually I did. Bear in mind I was only using my bare eyes, but it
sure was a steady orange glow non blinking. Nice sight for sure.
