Mars is on my agenda in the next couple of months. It is currently rising at 5 in the morning and is in slight retrograde. It will be much better in a couple of months. So for now, hurry up and wait. The Americans at the moment have a much better view of it. But not for long.

But I promise that those of us that do photos will inundate you with them. You never know so of the guys at Wiruna might bring some shots home.

I think and I stand to be corrected on this, but Mars is supposed to be at its best approximately in September. Can anyone confirm this?

yeah rumps

i cant wait myself to have a good look at it.


venus is also cool to see with the naked eye
mars rises here (in w.a) at about 02.00 am in the morning and is still visible (naked eye) when i take out the dog for his walk at about 5.15 am

[vindictive666]

yes thats true

i was just basically commenting on that the first mars pics were already out there :)

Your probably right Peter, I saw it a month and a half ago at 5, so it has no doubt moved by now. I just checked and it will be at opposition on Nov 7. 19.93 arc secs in size

I personally cant wait for it to become a night time object... I hate mornings :(
