Someone texted this earlier...

Planet Mars will be brightest in the night sky starting August. It will look as large as the fullmoon to the naked eye. This will culminate on August 27 when Mars comes within 34.65M miles of the Earth. Be sure to watch the sky on August 27, 12:30 am. It will look like the earth has 2 moons. The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287. Share this with your loved ones and friends as NO ONE ALIVE TODAY will ever see it again.

Could this be real? I remember this text last year, I think they said it was Venus.

:-X :-X

this is true..see all the volcanoes, eathquakes and tsunamis? this is the prelude to August 27..

hhmmm.... meaning?

tsk tsk... i should start living a clean life na ba??? ;D

Anyone tried searching the sky for Mars lately? It should be very visible by now if this is for real, however i guess the sky's been too clouded over here as of late for planet-gazing...

On other astronomical matters, I just saw on the news that the planet we know as Pluto is now considered as not exactly a planet but just a "dwarf planet" as the scientists put it. It's a new concept... go figure.

Try nyo mag search sa Google.Com with the keyword 'Mars August 27' . Nung year 2003 pa ata nangyari to eh.
