You are now pointing due West, and just wait for the Aileens to come into view...:search:
Had a look around, and there don't seem to be any bright stars or planets to the West, oh well.
After a better look around, Saturn and Mars are pretty close together, with Jupiter not far above, enough to fool AA gunners though?
Edit, just noticed my time is wrong, I used UT, should be local time I presume?
Edit, if I time accelerate 8 hours, assuming PST is UTC-8, the Moon and all the planets have set.
