About the Mars question, consider the fact that the Andromeda galaxy, although faint in the sky, takes up 5 times more room in our night sky than the moon does. It's really huge.
Mars in comparison is minuscule in our night sky. It's just a tiny blob of light.
- andyjohnson0 12y ago"..the Andromeda galaxy, although faint in the sky, takes up 5 times more room in our night sky than the moon does." Correct, although wikipedia says 6 times and adds a clarification: "Although it appears more than six times as wide as the full Moon when photographed through a larger telescope, only the brighter central region is visible to the naked eye or when viewed using binoculars or a small telescope."
