On 30 May, The Red Planet Mars will be 47.2 million miles from our planet and will remain close and bright for the first two weeks of June.

The planet will be visible for much of the night if the skies are clear and should be able to be seen without a telescope or binoculars.

At its furthest, the distance between Earth and Mars can reach up to 250 million miles but the closest was in August 2003, when the two planets were just 35 million miles apart.

If you missed that chance to see it, you will be disappointed to know it will be another 300 years before the planets get that close again.
