How can i know where is mars in the sky when i look up to the sky during the night ?

Answer 1

Like all the planets, Mars is constantly moving. You can look up its current location on a site like the source. Basically it will appear as an extra star in one of the zodiac constellations, and if you know what those constellations are supposed to look like without any planets, then the extra star will stand out like a sore thumb.

Answer 2

Any planetarium software, such as Starry Night, will show you the current position of Mars. Currently it is visible low in the southeastern sky just before sunrise in the constellation Pisces. It is not currently very bright, 1st magnitude, but brighter than anything else in that part of the sky. As the year moves on, Mars will move eastward through the zodiacal constellations until it reaches opposition in Gemini on December 24, when it wil be much brighter, magnitude -1.6. In fact, at that time it will be the brightest object in the sky other than the Sun, Moon, and Venus.

Answer 3

the only reason i know is because i look at the sky every night. but, you could go to a website that will tell you its location. once you know where it is, youll never lose it again because nothing in the sky looks like mars does. its very bright and has a reddish orange color. good luck, but dont go looking for it for a couple of months, because your not gonna see it!!!!!!

Answer 4

when you look in the evening sky,, you will see 2 stars very close to each other... these are reddish in colour... these are both mars and venus.....
