MARS!!

If you haven’t gone out to see Mars yet — and the weather is clear in your area — get outside sometime after 10:30 or 11 the next few nights and look! It’s great! It’s that reddish point of light high in the southern sky (for northern hemisphere viewers). We went viewing it over at Oak Ridge Observatory on Saturday night — saw it through a 61″ telescope, a 6.5″ scope, and a 16″ scope — but it’s just as enchanting to look at through the naked eye and your imagination to take you to the ruddy surface of the Red Planet. Go!!!
