Geez what a load of overhype.
(IM a keen backyard astronomer)

Yes Mars will be bright. Look up on any clear night, see how bright the brightest stars are? Mars wil be that bright, and its a gradual thing, it wont be noticably brighter than it is now. These things are in tiny increments.

And theu a 75x scope it will look as big as moon? well that what scopes do. Thru a 75x scope my .. ahem.. looks as big as Empire state building!

Dunno about that mate but I like to visit my local planet, Planet Chicken, best chicken in town! And the best part, I don't need the space shuttle to get there!
