Mars and Moon Come Together for Splendid Show! Twitterati Share Gorgeous Photos of the Red Planet With Full Moon

Mars and the moon set up a show in the night sky on Friday. In areas where the sky is clear, the celestial event was visible. Skywatchers located in Patagonia, the sparsely populated region at the southern end of South America saw the moon hide behind Mars. Although Mars and the nearly full moon will appear side by side, Mars won't loom as large as the moon. The Red Planet has made its closest approach to Earth as the two appeared to hang close to each other in the night sky. The conjunction started at 11:35 pm ET on Friday, October 2, with the closest approach seen after midnight. People took to the internet sharing pictures of moon and Mars.

Whatta Sight!

I captured this alignment while out on my run. The crowned tin-man is a crazy mailbox. I managed to align the moon right on the tip of his crown and just caught Mars in the same frame. It turned out pretty cool I think.
