During recent night hikes amid a clear sky, I see where Mars is still very prominent in the sky. It's something of an orangy color in contrast with the white light of the stars or other planets; almost like one gold coin among some silver ones. It is said that it will shine bright until the end of summer at least. Since it's usually too dim to even see with the naked eye, I really hate to lose it. Several weeks ago when I drove into a good hiking location, it immediately struck me in the sky! This is special, and worthy of a night hike just to see it before it... in a sense... goes away.
