Lets not forget this coming up too...

On APRIL 1st ..2018 MARS passes 21' minutes of arc North of the very bright GLOBULAR M22 , one of the finest and easiest to resolve globulars in the night sky in just about any aperture over 76 mm.*

At magnitude +5.9 and apparent diameter of 24' and Mars at 9 ".
