amusedOn August 27, 2003, Mars will be closer to Earth than any time since 57,537 B.C.
It won't be this close again until A.D. 25,695.
How lucky to be alive right now! On August 27 Mars will rise at 8:08 pm, in the costellation Aquarius. At this point it will only be 34 million miles away. Just look for a brilliant orange-red "star" in the eastern sky. You won't be able to miss it.
Looks like all us Aries have something rather special to celebrate on the playa. How lucky indeed!
