Rob,
I read that on Aug 27th, of this year, Earth and Mars
will experience their closest proximity in many
centuries.
Article states that Mars should appear Moon like in
size at 34.6MM and that this distance relationship
"may" not happen again for 60,000 years.
Get your TCs ready to stack onto the 300mm f2.8.;-]
In 60K years photo resolution will be such that a
Pentax 50mm lens will render resolution to allow one
to simply pull up the image in PS to examine the
planet's surface.
