o/t mars closest to earth than it's ever been before

[perseus]

Last time a Halle Bob Comet came along, they closed the Goldstone, I think it was Barnet in an evening match and it was cloudy then as well.

Hey, Supernova,

can you tell me the London weather?

LC1

It's going to be cloudy and rainy

 

[MRRF 10]

It will probably be cloudy and rainy, but hey, you never know, the forecasts are never 100% accurate, it might be sunny

What !!

Sunny tonight, I'll never see Mars then

 

[Scotty Mac]

can't see it once again.........

what a dissapointment!

 

[Gangsta]

Still cant see it, v dissapointed.

Is Mars the one with that weird "face" on it that NASA always pretend is just some rock formation. If Mars is cloaser this week, does this heighten the chances of alien invasion, if only by a bit. Should I get some tins in just in case?

 

[MRRF 10]

just seen forecast, temperature of 10c tonight, which means litlle, or no cloud, tonight will probably be the best night to view, the forecast reccomended looking tonight.

 

[Lush]

It was easily visible last night - again from the Sussex coast. Although slightly less orangey than before. Is it me or does it look very slightly "figure of eight"-y? I don't have a "tellyscope" or "binockoolars".

I couldnt see it so i wouldnt know, should be easy to see tonight.

 

[MRRF 10]

Mars rises at Eight tonight, and sets at 4.30 tommorow morning.

Best to view at 12.00 if you are awake, look south, it will be the brightest thing in the sky. If not awake look as late as posible before you go to bed.

 

[London Calling]

IT WAS GREAT LAST NIGHT REALLY BRIGHT.. EVEN IN LONDON.

LC1

IS THIS AN ANGRY MARS?

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

Is it better to look during the day or at night? Not much cloud around now but I can't see it!

What do you think?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Is it that orange star that's a bit brighter than the others that if you stand at the top of Preston Drove & it's in the sky someplace over the Marina which I guess is sort of South East. New to all this - cos all these 'best meteor storm for five billion years' and 'most fabulous view of Uranus since time began' that they always report is always totally obscured by some shitty wodge of cloud.

Do you want to help me with my war on the clouds

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

What do you think?

I don't know otherwise I wouldn't be asking

It's a clear enough day and I still can't see it so I'm thinking tonight as the sun's reflection will be reflecting off it. Or is it too small?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Yeah, I'd be up for that super nova. Death to clouds! is the view from Preston Park!, - with or without UN backing. Hell, go for it! What do we do? Point aerosols at the sky? Chop up the pipes at the back of old fridges, pop that stuff inside the bubbles of bubble-wrap. JUst Do It aye!?

sky map


Just had a look at the moon with my new telescope for the first time, it picks up a lot of detail. Can see all the craters and things, will be looking at 12:30 for Mars.
