Mars is about to be

On June 28, Mars will begin to "stall", and move against the direction inherent in our sky. What does this mean?

Our Mars is about to reach its brightest stage in the last 15 years. Specifically, at the end of July, it will be only about 57.6 million kilometers away - the closest distance since August 2003.

This means that within a month, you will see Mars glowing like Jupiter, emitting orange light. This is probably a very meaningful thing for astronomers, right?

But what happens to Mars is not only that. On 28/6 here, Mars began to move to the "reverse" stage. This means that now, Mars will "go back" from East to West, instead of the East as usual, and follow the zig zag pattern.

The path of Mars in the next few days.

This process will take place within 2 months. Joe Rao, an expert at Space.com, said on August 28, Mars will stop again, and move east again.

What is this mysterious phenomenon?

Why is there a story about a planet moving . such a ruckus? Actually, nothing is a mystery.

According to Rao, if standing in the Earth looking up, every planet in the universe will have a time to go backwards - also known as mischief . In it, the most famous is.

All planets can be mischievous.

But in fact, every planet always turns in that direction. If you see it backwards, it's just because visual illusion happens by the speed of the Earth's own rotation.

Imagine you are on a car. When passing other vehicles, even if both cars are in the same direction, you will still see the slower car as if going backwards.

Just like when riding a car, even if it is in the same direction, the slower car will be like going backward.

In this case, too. Earth and Mars all go in the same direction, but because Mars is slower, there will be times when it looks like it is going backwards when viewed from Earth.

Are the starring stars causing you trouble?

Many people think that it is more difficult for our stars to turn around - especially Mercury - to make things in our lives more difficult. But according to Michelle Nichols, director of the Adler Planetarium astronomical museum in Chicago, this is just a psychological problem.

Because in fact, all the other planets in the solar system are too far away to affect Earth.

Play comfortably, but it doesn't work at all.

"You put a book in your hand, the gravity of that book is bigger than Mercury's impact on Earth," Nichols said.
