A Halloween Invasion from Mars
NASA APOD
COSMIC MESSAGE
Mars at opposition, its closest point to Earth, makes for a dramatic photo. This Hubble Space Telescope image shows the planet at a mere 65 million miles from us. In 1938, Orson Welles's radio drama used this alignment for a fictional Martian invasion. The story caused a panic among some listeners who thought it was real.
