I was watching Fox Five and had totally forgotten about being able to see Mars this week. So FH and I ran downstairs and checked it out It's so cool. It looks like an orange star. If you haven't checked it out, you must. Just look South. The next time this will happen will be sometime in 2230 or something like that. They say the best day to view it will be tomorrow.

I sooo wish I had a telescope right now

John had his MYSIZE telescope out there last nite. He woke me up at like 11:30 to admire in amazement. It was pretty cool. It had this colorful glow.

I haven't checked it out yet because I read that tonight and tomorrow night is when it will be the most visible. I am pretty excited in a nerdy kind of way.
