Look to the heavens on the evening of August 27th. Mars at that time will be so close to the earth, that it will look like there are two moons in the sky. No one alive today will ever see this happen again.

We'll be counting on you to bump the post on that date then Lon

Yeah, will do, definetly, must get to a clear sky and a telescope if I get the chance, hope so! But I doubt mars is going to look quite as impressive as the moon, its 30 million miles away after all, but it will be bright alright!

Theres been a change of plans. Mars had to detour, apparently Jupiter is having another crisis and requires Mars to intervene.
