Thanks very much as it should be a really exciting event as
Mars is incredible in a telescope at present. A group of us have been getting
amazing views in telescopes over the past days and weeks and of course Mars is
at its very closest in the coming week. So please help us to show Mars to more
people on November 4 and volunteer a bit of help today, thanks. email tom now
