Normally, the planet Mars is easily seen and recognized by its reddish color. But during certain points in Earth's orbit, Mars is nearly on the opposite side of the Sun from us, and it is not visible.
Mars passed behind the Sun in December 2008, and should become visible in the eastern sky just before sunrise sometime in mid April 2009.
