Nasty, snipey lot here, it seems. There have been quite a number
of posts over the years relating to the visibility of the moon and
planets. It does depend on the weather, after all.
Tudor, anyone with any scientific knowledge who takes seriously the
idea that Mars will appear the same size as the full moon hasn't got a
clue. Gavin is, quote, a Fellow Member of the Royal Meteorological
Society, unquote.
Apart from his irritating habit of posting off-topic, he should know
better than to post that sort of rubbish here.

With all due respect, I don't for one moment think that Mars could appear
the same size as a full moon. I asked for some advice on this, as this after
all is a technical ng, and in moments someone very kindly on this ng passed
on the URL to me, which explained what was going on. I have since forwarded
that URL on to the person who sent me that email in the first instance, and
she has since replied saying thank you. That's all there is to it. I am
sorry that anyone was annoyed by that:-(
I'll take this opportunity to say that this is be my last posting on
this ng, as it appears that my contributions regardless of whatever I wish
to say, are obviously no longer welcome:-(
Gavin.
Gavin,
All the very best for the future, whatever that holds.
At times we have to take stock with our lives and sometimes opportunities arrive
for growth and development which we can take. I hope this is one for you.
Cheers,
Will.
