August 28: Look at the nightsky!

These days Mars are closer to the Earth than it's been any time during the past 60.000 years.
We went down to the beach earlier tonight, and Mars is really huge on the sky. Take a look.

You won't get another chance until the year 61.623 (And I doubt anyone lives that long!) 🙂

Yes, I've been observing it all this month😄
