The full moon right next to Mars looks pretty sweet, it's clear right now in San Jose, so you can look up and see it, to the left is Orion....if you're up and got nothing else better to do check it out!

edit - i didn't think it through, i thought time zones might have an effect, oops

Saw it already today....I would take a picture if I had a telescope with a mounting kit for my camera.

Yea I can see it pretty clearly. Bogs my mind to think that we have two rovers running around up there.

This thread reminds me of the fact that my dear, loving wife is trying her damndest to get me a nice starter telescope for christmas. She found one that connects to a PC and has the ability to take pictures. I hope she finds one she likes. :)
