Close Encounters Of The Mars Kind
Lab_rat0 writes "Never again in our lifetimes will the Red Planet be so spectacular!
This month and next, Earth is catching up with Mars, an encounter that will culminate in the closest approach between the two planets in
recorded history. This article at EliteGeek has more details.
According to Agg over at OCAU, this is probably the reason for all the Mars probes launched over the last few months."

wings twitch, legs are going,
don't get sentimental, it always ends up drivel.
Go ahead.
In other news, it has been suggested that eating fast food will make you gain weight and that watching Real TV will make you sterile.
Right, there's a lot here that makes me dubious of the claim. First off, I should point out that I've worked on the capture problem for Mars's moons. (The results haven't been published, although the did land a grant.) First off, why is synchronous orbit a hint as to their breakup? There's no reason that synchronous orbit is preferred, either as a capture point or as a point for breakup. In fact, synchronous orbit is an unstable equilibrium: a slight perturbation drives everything away from it. (Which is why Phobos is heading inward and Deimos outward.) Also, he needs to explain why a larger moon orbited there happily (without perturbation!) for billions of years before breaking apart. In the very least, we're witnessing Mars's moons at a very unusal time, and such coincidence make me (and most astronomers) nervous. Also, Phobos has drifted inward since any such breakup. Why isn't it breaking up more? Unless there's some internal strength (in which case, why did it break up then?), it should. To be honest, I sort of question his background for this. Besides the fact that he's not an astronomer, he wants to put a base on Deimos? The surface gravity on those moons is virtually non-existant. (For Deimos, being smaller, it's under 1 cm/sec^2, I believe.) No one could even walk around properly. (Although, if he hollowed it out and made a colony ship out of it, we could launch it to Tau Ceti... But it might encounter some hostile, three-eyed aliens.*) I'd be happy to hear him explain his idea to a group of dynamicists. Hell, I'll volunteer. But I'm very skeptical for now. (* Kudos to anyone who catches *that* reference.)
