Mars Approach 2020
Mars appears its biggest and brightest tonight, as Earth passes closer to the red planet than it has in over two years. This image shows Mars in the week leading up to its closest approach and opposition. Due to the slightly oval shape of their orbits, Earth and Mars' closest approach and opposition occur on slightly different dates. Look to the east just after sunset to see it.
