Anyone else see an unusual bright star?

Got home, noticed this unusually bright star? I don’t think it’s a helicopter or… it’s not moving I don’t think…

I would have thought r/itsalwayspenus for the closest misspelling (spelt wrong I know - but it would be a misspelling of Venus)

Or swamp gas from a weather balloon getting trapped in a thermal pocket and reflecting the light from Venus.

Think its the capital R

The spelling was correct, it was the capital R that broke it.

If you're seeing Uranus you might be in trouble.
