Radio man (dispatcher) has a chemist degree, he thought it was the morning star. SE apparoximately 20 deg, 530 -545 am. When you stopped the patrol car the object appeared to stop This is an illusion because of the atmosnhere. Planet Venus has magnitude of - 4.1. It is so bright that this i s commong thing to Captain lhrrell again -Told him that it was the Planet Venus. Captain Harrell sqtd these things get ridiculously out of hand.
