In August of 2003 Mars was the
largest planet on the sky and at the times of full moon it
passed very close by the moon (in the previus month it
actually made a transit). Here's the artistic composition.
Mars in its actual scale, although the largest in 60,000
years is still very small and dim, compared to the
Moon.
