Look up tonight! Mars will appear three times bigger in the night sky as the red planet orbits closer to Earth than it has for the last 15 years
Mars will be just 35.8 million miles (57.6 million kilometres) from Earth tonight
The red planet will appear bigger and brighter than usual in the night sky tonight
Mars is visible to the naked eye, but those with telescopes will get the best view
Known as 'perihelic opposition', the phenomenon occurs when Mars reaches its closest point to the sun at the same time as the Earth is lined-up between the two
