MARS WILL APPEAR AS BIG AS THE MOON
18.08.2003 at 08:53:55

MARK AUGUST 27th ON YOUR CALENDAR MARS WILL APPEAR AS BIG AS THE MOON! FIRST TIME IN AT LEAST 5,000 YEARS!

Never again in your lifetime will the Red Planet (Mars) be so spectacular! This month and next, Earth is catching up with Mars, an encounter that will culminate in the closest approach between the two planets in recorded history. The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287. Due to the way Jupiter's gravity tugs on Mars and perturbs its orbit, astronomers can only be certain that Mars has not come this close to Earth in the last 5,000 years but it may be as long as 60,000 years.

On August 27, Mars will come within 34,649,589 miles and will be (next to the moon) the brightest object in the night sky. It will attain a magnitude of -2.9 and will appear 25.11 arc seconds wide. At a modest 75-power magnification Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye. Mars will be easy to spot. At the beginning of August, Mars will rise in the east at 10 p.m. and reach its azimuth at about 3 a.m. But by the end of August when these two planets are closest, Mars will rise at nightfall and reach its highest point in the sky at 12:30 a.m. That's pretty convenient when it comes to seeing something that no human has seen in recorded history.

So don't miss it---mark your calendar at the beginning of August to see Mars grow progressively brighter throughout the month.

Share this with your friends. No one alive today will ever see this again!

A bo društvo Sonce (ali forumaši) organiziralo izlet v kakšno opazovalnico, kjer se bo dalo to čudo videti na lastne oči?

Ej, to čudo se da videti vsak dan, ko vzide tam enkrat po 22 uri, na JV strani neba, taka ogromna, oranžkasta "zvezda" je tale Mars.... In nato se on začne pomikati proti Z. Tisti dan je pa še prav posebej blizu.

Mi smo se pa odpravili proti Primorski, k frendu na viken, kjer nas je čakal teleskop. OK, imel je le 35x50x50 povečavo, Grin

, tako da smo ga povečali nekako na velikost frnikule, ampak je bil res krasen, rozast, in obdajal ga je zelen sij... Imeli pa smo se sploh krasno, prišli domov okol pol petih zjutraj, rahlo nažgani in izredno dobro razpoloženi. Skratka tale nebo, Mars in sploh vse ga res sekaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! Grin
