April 8, see Mars easily.

Not much time and heading out the door, but wanted to get this up here immediately. 

Mars will be very bright tonight, and can be easily seen with the naked eye.

Also, on the 15th, the night of the lunar eclipse, mars will be in it's closest position to Earth. 

Here's the link tot he article, sorry about not getting more info up here. Had to leave 5 minutes ago, but saw this. So here's the link folks, enjoy, and go take a look tonight.
