what a planet,it was in the southeast corner of the sky last nite,as big and red as you please!! if you havent seen it i would suggest you better get out there and take a look.the next time it will be this close to earth will be in the year 2769 and i do think we will be a little too old to be doing any viewing by then,unless it will be from a permanent laying down position!!LOL get my drift?? i tell ya mars is so close that i actually saw a few martians,and they were sitting around and saying,hey the planet earth is getting so close,we can actually see a few humans!!LOL LOL i kill me!!get out your telescope,get out your binoculors or just get out,but take a look,its magnificent!!((hugs))mindy

Mindy

I have been outside to see it. However they are building houses behind me now a (new addition) and they have put a street light right behind my house. GRRRRRRRRR sure make it hard to see it now. OH well the price of a growing city I guess

I am going to find a nice dark place and take my telescope and go out on the 27 and see it again when it is suppose to be at the closest.

Hey if you see those martians again tell them I said hello and will be waving on the 27th LOL

Love

Mary

Mindy,

Awesome isn't it. Tonight the telescope does come out. Having the kids take a nap so they can be up also.

One little thing tho Mindita.....be careful out there. Do think those martians heard about your cooking and are looking for you.
