MUSCAT : The event, which will make the Red Planet appear brighter and more brilliant than usual, occurs as Mars aligns with the Sun in relation to Earth. This positioning causes the planet to shine with an intense red hue, making it visible throughout the night.
According to the Society, Mars will rise at sunset and remain visible for the entire evening, providing an excellent opportunity for both amateur astronomers and casual skywatchers to observe the planet. The clear night skies will allow for the best views, with or without the use of telescopes.
