As it's the closest it's ever been to the Earth in 60,000 years or something (that's when Cavemen were running around wearing...nothing), but where do I look?

Apparently it was the closest at 10.51am this morning but tonight it is said to be around 2,000 more miles away yet still viewable with the naked eye.

The sky around here was cloudy today but since then it's cleared up a bit which means I have some hope in seeing the Red Planet with my eye balls. Actually, theres a lot of Blue sky. If you live in London or something though you can forget it with all that light and stuff.

But yeah, take a look out tonight and look for something which looks like a red disc and if you see it, thats Mars.

My pants are already down.

And I'm not a geek head.
