[LakelandARC] Two Moons

[Bigdog]

This is not entirely accurate and is an error that has been perpetuated for years.  Visibility will be good with a telescope, the naked eye, not so much.

Dear all,
Two moons on 27th August ..27th Aug the Whole World is waiting for....
Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting August. It will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye. This will cultivate on Aug. 27 when Mars comes within 34.65M miles off earth. Be sure to watch the sky on Aug. 27 @ at 00:30 (It will look like the earth has 2 moons.
The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287.
Share this with your friends as NO ONE ALIVE TODAY will ever see it again.
