Just a heads up on what you see when you finally get off the Lit in the wee hours, go outside for a smoke, and think you see Venus.

(www******.com) - Mars recently emerged into the morning sky and has begun an orbital dance with Earth that will, over the next several months, lead to the best viewing opportunity since Neanderthals looked skyward. The Red Planet is getting progressively closer to Earth with each passing night, and consequently it will slowly appear to grow larger and brighter. By late August 2003, when it will be about 191 million miles closer, the reddish point of light in our night sky will appear more than six times larger and shine some 85 times brighter than it appears now.

P.S. The Leonid Meteor Showers are this month!

Thanks.

I'm one of those people who gets up at 3am whenever there's a meteor shower to watch the falling stars!!! Dorky, I know, but I love it, especially on the really cold clear mornings!
