Reply to comment by AdoltTwittler in I saw something with a 16" scope as a kid--it was a softly glowing yellow-orange ball with two irregular asteroid-like rocks on either side of it. It was the middle of the night and I pointed my telescope straight up. Nobody has ever been able to tell me what I saw. It was too yellow to be Mars. by 8th_House_Stellium

They didn't appear to be moving, and the two smaller objects were much dimmer than the glowing orange thing. The smaller objects were grayish brown.

My best guess is Jupiter but I really don't know. Sorry!
