COSMIC MESSAGE
Mars will appear relatively normal in August; October 2005 is the best month to see it. Earth catches up to Mars in their orbits, making Mars rise earlier each night. On October 30, 2005, the planets will be at their closest approach. Ignore any urban legends about Mars appearing extremely close or bright this month.
