if you havent seen mars yet go outside and take a look

[Ameesh]

mars was the closest its been in 12 years a couple of days ago, its really easy to see if you cant find it your wither stupid or its overcast.

 

[Ameesh]

what nobody likes astronomy?

 

[HansHurt]

I like it...how's the view from West Coast Britsh Columbia?

 

[ISAslot]

Jupiter, Saturn, and Venus were nice a few months ago as well.

Saturn is just too cool too look at. I saw those rings and I kept pondering about it. How the planet is out there doing planetary things, and there is no one around there to see what's happening. You see it in books and pictures, but when you see it for yourself it suddenly really is out there.

Time to go look at Mars.

 

[dude]

Nothing but CLOUDS!

 

[Moonbeam]

Was also discussed here.

 

[brtspears2]

I must be stupid. I cant find Mars. I just see alot of other things.

[gittyup]

I see the moon. Does that count?

 

[Czar]

Is mars the big yellow ball in the sky?

 

[huey1124]

if you're into stargazing, you should head out to Rancho Palos Verdes.

 

[Monel Funkawitz]

Damn, it is close, because it is making my eyes hurt, and making my skin turn a deep red from the ultra violet radiation.

 

[huey1124]

hey, is it true that Irish people's skin is so pale, they can get moon burn?
