    Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting August. It
    will look as large as the full moon to the naked Eye. This will happen
    on Aug 27 when Mars comes within 34.65M miles of earth. Be sure to
    watch the sky on Aug. 27 12:30 am. It will look like the earth has two
    moons.

    The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287.

    Share this with your friends as NO ONE ALIVE TODAY will ver see it
    again.

    If Mars looked as large as the full moon from Earth with the naked eye, I would be scared for my life.

    If that were really going to happen we would've been moving to higher ground months ago (high tides).

    Also I believe he said 34.5M miles, which is 34.5 million miles. :]

    It would've been pretty to see that though... :[
