Your last chance for 2 1/2 Centuries!

[emoji33] “August 27 at 00:30 Lift up your eyes and look up at the night sky. On this night, the planet Mars will pass just 34.65 million miles from the earth. To the naked eye it looks like two of the moon above the ground! The next time Mars will be so close to the Earth as much as in 2287.

But that time had already passed when the initial post was made.

Or am I being extraordinarily dense and missing something obvious?

Would the weather have been any good, anyway? There's been a lot of cloud of late.

I frequently see the BBC blithely stating that you will be able to see some phenomenon or other at some ungodly hour only to find 100% cloud cover at the appointed time.
