Is it hot or what—

Did you know that Mars is making a once in a lifetime pass through the solar system. You can view it next to the full moon tonight and right next to Venus. I think that is why England and Germany, as well as other places are experiance unseasonably hot weather.

Yup. We were gonna get the telescope out and look but I hear it's still a pretty good view with the naked eye. I feel bad for the people burning up in Europe, but 100 degree weather is a typical day in Oklahoma in the middle of August. lol

It was awesome to see my astrological planet that close to my physical world. What a beautiful sphere!
