Re: Mars getting close!! - Mars will its closet ever.

Coming about in july and augest mars will closer to the earth since 60000 years ago. This means that you can get the best view of mars with a same telosscope ever, in our life time anyways. Mars diameter will apear about 15 inches in a teloscope the largest ever. For example last time mars was this close to earth was 2 years ago 2001 that year mars was abut 12 inches. Whats this mean coming in a few mounths you will have your best chance to check out mars features for your selfs. Its a once in a lifetime event so dont miss it.
I found this out in this mouth issse of Sky and Teloscope magizene chech it out for your self they have a lot of good information on viewing mars, other planets, and stars.
Its a cool magizene, Sky and Telescope, and Astorme mag are great. They both have a lot of stores abot mars.
