Some friends and I are having a telescope party this Saturday to observe Mars - hope the weather holds out!

Finally saw Mars. There were 4 other stars visible. Mars was very low about 20 degrees east of south, 10 degrees elevation. Bright, but not as red as formerly, that is, the color was not so saturated, pale red, the color of candy peanuts.
