Was zooming in to see Jupiter's 4 Galilean moons (or Galilean satellites) and after saw an extra star on the bottom left. Using the Star Walk 2 App to check the exact the position of the moons, I realised that star was actually 45 Capricornus, a Subgiant Star type star. 45 Capricorni is a A7IV/V subgiant star based on the spectral type that was recorded in the Hipparcos star catalogue. 45 Capricorni is not part of the Capricornus constellation outline but is within the borders of the constellation. So in actual fact, 5 bright objects appeared alongside Jupiter as seen in this photo.
