On August 27th, Mars will be as close to us as it can be in our lifetime…well, in several lifetimes. 56 million kilometers if you want the exact figure. Article is here.
I guess this is why everyone is sending up new Mars exploration gear this year. Saving on the gas bill. I wish I was going (it’s gotta be better than Jackson Heights, Queens). If you have similar thoughts and want to do a little dreaming, go pick up Red Mars which is a really intense piece fo hard sci-fi, and damn good writing in general.

Well I have never been to Jackson Heights so I really have no idea which one is better!! Just know that Mars’ crime and race population is at 0%
