Roland Posted August 20, 2006 Author Report Posted August 20, 2006 There seems confusion... many for and many against it happening as this reports of many also shows. Ignore Internet info on Red Planet image By Andrew Lightman/ Milford Daily News Wednesday, August 16, 2006 - Updated: 08:18 AM EST An e-mail alert circling the Internet reporting Mars will look as large as the full moon the night of Aug. 27 is cosmic spam. “It’s just, on a basic fourth-grade arithmetic level, it’s just impossible,” said a baffled Bruce Mattson, a science and technology specialist at the McAuliffe Challenger Center at Framingham State College. The moon is on average 238,000 miles from Earth; at its closest, Mars is tens of millions of miles away. The Internet e-mail causing such a ruckus states: “Earth is catching up with Mars in an encounter that will culminate in the closest approach between the two planets in recorded history.” So who am I to say ... Be nice, so will keep a eye out any way.
