I have made a note. That is two weeks after my birthday (less one day). Looks cool.

I know. I thought it was pretty cool..
Even if it's cloudy for the whole of August here, there's guna be footage from all over the world, so wherever there's clear skies, we'll be able to see the pics/videos from there. God Bless the Internet! LoL Sticks will like this. He probably already knows though, cuz he's well into this stuff. |

Barry. It's not the size of the telescope, it's having the proper technique to use it.

it;s a hoax... you do all realize...
YES. mars will come close but not enough to be as big as the moon... The maximum angular diameter of mars is 25 seconds of arc. The maximum angular diameter of the moon is 34.1 minutes of arc or 2046 seconds of arc. So the full moon is 82 times larger than mars. |

Not so much a hoax as people getting the wrong end of the stick or some one possibly having a laugh which has got out of hand
See also here where there are other links about this non-story. |

the email just comes round every year again... and more that likely will do until 2287 or something like that when mars is really really close! |
