Heard the radio play. This is when they attack.
Was there sudden flashes on the surface of Mars a couple of days ago? Near the South Pole?

Paging Soros, Clinton, Obama, Jarrett and all your friends. Your flight to Mars is now ready.

You can see Mars tonight by looking to the southwestern sky.
...
SOUTHEASTERN sky, not southwest. It’s been very bright the past few nights. I thought it was Jupiter at first.

Mars has been so bright lately that I thought that all I was looking at Jupiter all this time, until I looked on an astronomy map and realized that they were at opposite ends of the sky (i.e. Mars was rising in the east while Jupiter was setting in the west).

They discovered a lake near the South Pole, so I decided to go fishing there (and buy lakefront property, too). MarsVacation.com is the Airbnb for Mars...😀

Same here. Although the orange color made me suspicious. I just checked an online planetarium and Mars is brighter right now, -2.77 vs. -2.13 for Jupiter.
