Blue Red
What is the bright red body, white and blue in the North American skies at night? Saturn?
I am very interested recently in the sky night and I'm investigating a star-planet. In the north-western sky in the northern hemisphere (Ohio, USA) and knee socks may be 40 ยบ horizon. He is the brightness is very bright and dramatic and blues / red / white are easily visible. I see that Saturn in the guides nightsky, but they show in the west to south-west of my position.
He is the star Capella, which might fit your description (although is less than 40 degrees above the horizon). Very bright, you can always see when it is low, its light coming to us after having crossed much of the atmosphere at a shallow angle. This causes a lot of refraction, causing a flash and excessive changes in the apparent color (it because refraction is slightly different for each color). The wink is because the stars appear as very small objects and the angle refraction caused by air may be greater than the apparent size of the star. — Saturn is much higher and is yellowish. Because planets are much closer than the stars, they have a larger apparent size (even if it is still too small for our eyes to notice). For Therefore, they will often be seen not as a blink, even if stars around them are. Saturn is in the south or SSW certainly not NW. Capella is at NW where the sky is dark.
