A night to remember!

Recently, along the way home from work, I looked up in the sky. What I saw that night was totally precious and remarkable moments seeing that night full of stars. It looks like a giant planetarium, where I can watch the stars shining brightly in the open sky. There is one star (wether its a planet or a satellite), that shines very bright, the brightest among the other star. I wonder what is it? A planet? or A satellite? I'm sure I can remember that night if, I have a camera (hurm....=..=')
