Nope Mars won’t will be around again until 2080 but not too close. The next time it will be close like it was in 2003 is August 27th 2287. Make sure to mark your calendars.

The point of the answer is. It will NEVER ever look as big as the moon. That is is retarded to think that it would.

No. It’s not actually retarded to think it might, but it does show an ignorance of physics.
