Yeah this christmas mars is supposed to be brighter than the brightest star or something in the night sky you can read in this article (http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20071220/ap_on_sc/mars_rudolph)
but i liked the revamped song they had there.....lmao here it is
Mars is a red-tinged planet
With a very shiny glow
And if you look to see it
You will find the moon in tow.
All of the other Yuletides
Santa would have at his side
The shiny nose of Rudolph
Acting as his big sleigh's guide
But this very Christmas Eve
Santa came to say:
"Rudolph, now with Mars so bright,
You can stay at home tonight."
Then all the reindeer teased him.
And they shouted out with glee:
"Rudolph, the red-nosed reindeer
Outsourced to astronomy."
