I wanted to get a better look so I went to visit the observatory at Folsom Lake College. I told them that I would like to view this star. They were surprised that I could recognize this star with my naked eye. When they turned their scope toward the star, they recognized it as Aldebaran. They also pointed out to me the Pleiades and the belt of Orion. We also viewed Jupiter which was situated to the left of these constellations along with its three moons.
From that time on, I continued to watch this amazing red star that was now easy to target by following Orions belt to the north. The red star was also situated between the horns of Taurus. My research led me back to the golden calf.
