Comet Sliding Spring meets Mars.
Comet Sliding Spring meets Mars.
On October 19th 2014 Comet Sliding Spring is going to have a close encounter with Mars. Naturally all of the Mars orbiters and maybe even a few of the rovers will be looking at it. Now if we are lucky enough to have a clear night this night we should also be able to see this comet close to Mars. Might be an image op for some of the imagers out there.
