Venus. Not Mars. That sets at around 09.30am at moment.

Providing its not on a collision trajectory, I'm going to get on with my life.

Does anyone know what the bright object in the night sky is? Visible in the early hours, up towards the east, quite high over the Whitehawk TV transmitter if you were looking from the Withdean/Dyke Road area.

It's not moving fast, so isn't the international space station, and I can't see a tail so I presume it isn't a comet.

Pretty sure it will be Mars....it should have an orange tinge to it. Earlier in the evening Saturn and Jupiter are visible, Jupiter being a lot brighter and possibly visible just after twilight. the two are quite close together .

It's Venus. Mars is in that part of the sky early evening as it gets dark

Was It heading towards or from Southwick Hill Tunnel?

Do you honestly think after years of observing our war mongering ways, they would believe that for one minute.....
