When will Mars come to earth?
Actually mars will come close to earth on August 27th 2009!
Will mars be close to earth on August 28 2009?
No. That's the "Mars Hoax" that Mars will be close to Earth and appear "as bigas the full moon!". Not even close to being true.
What planet is close to earth in August 2009?
Currently (on August 27, 2009) the planet Mercury is closest to the Earth. If you were thinking Mars, guess again; Mars is actually fairly distant. Not QUITE across the solar system from Earth, but over 1.3 AU away! If you thought Mars would be very close, you may have been reading the Mars Hoax.
What happen in 27-08-2009 about the moon?

When is the planet mars closest to the earth?
August the 27th of this year (2009) is when Mars is to be the closest it has ever been to the earth. It is supposedly to be about the same size in the sky as the moon.
Will Mars appear larger in August 2009?
No. Mars did make an exceptionally close approach to Earth in August 2003, and every year since, spammers change the date and resend the message. However, Mars will NEVER appear "as big as the full Moon". Right now, on August 9, 2009, Mars rises a little before sunrise and is visible low in the eastern sky at dawn. By January, 2010, Mars will be overhead at midnight, but this will be one of the more distant conjunctions.
Is Mars and earth close?
Yes it would take 3 years to get to mars, or less at the right timing when mars is close to earth
Was mars ever close to earth before 2003?
Yes. Mars comes fairly close to Earth about every 26 months or so as the Earth passes Mars in its orbit. Some approaches are closer than others, due to the fact that both planets are in elliptical orbits. You can see a simulation of Mars and Earth in their orbits at http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/mars/mars_orbit.html. When Mars is closer and Earth is farther away from the Sun, as in August 2003, they do get quite close. But they have had such close approaches every few hundred years since the planets formed 4+ billion years ago.
Will Mars be visible in August 2009?
Yes, Mars will be visible in the morning during the month of August.
How close is earth to mars?
54,600,000 kilometers from earth.
What are the release dates for Mars Making the New Earth - 2009?

What is the Mars email hoax?
Each August since 2003, widely-circulated and misleading internet posts and e-mails have erroneously reported a "close approach of Mars to Earth, leading to spectacular views of the planet". But there will be nothing spectacular about the appearance of Mars in August, 2009. The reports are relabeled copies from August, 2003, when Mars was at one of its closest approaches to Earth in their respective orbits. The distance was still 34.65 million miles (55.76 million kilometers). These close approaches occur when the aphelions of Earth coincide with perihelions of Mars on the same side of the Sun. In 1971, Mars was nearly as close as in 2003. Although Mars looked substantially brighter in 2003, it was still only a reddish point oflight. The actual suggestion was that a 75X magnification of the planet would make it appear the size of the full moon. But an accompanying photograph was a magnified 4000X photo by the Hubble space telescope. At its brightest, Mars never surpasses the brightness of the planet Venus.
