There's a beautiful Mars out tonight |
|
Anyone else burning the midnight oil and taking a look at the thing? If you're somewhat interested in Mars, but can't see it now, don't worry, as it's going to be very close throughout most of September. It's worth a look, as I was able to see the ice caps with my piddly amateur telescope. Awesome.

3. I just popped outside. |

The sky's a bit washed out. I'll wait until a little closer to sunrise.
