Sunday August 27th & Mars Question

[Link]

Wife got a email this evening saying that this next Sunday sometime after midnight (west coast time) that Mars will look like a second moon. BIG
I tried doing a google on it... whoa, Spinner's little buddies really do control google searches!
We are planning on spending the night out at the cabin where we have the telescope set up to take peek at it.
Anyone else heard this?

Thanks

Don't give up the time with the wifey just because Mars ain't gonna be as close! Time well spent IMHO.
