This apparition, Mars will be in opposition to Earth on October 13th, 2020. Mark your calendars!
If you can't wait, you can do as I did. Start going outside in the wee hours of the morning and watch Marsrise. Mars rose above the horizon this morning at 0427.
I was outside with the Cat and captured this image.

At opposition, Mars will occupy over 22 arcseconds and will be much higher in the south.
Looking forward to it!
More images to come.
