Mars will sit below the star cluster in the constellation of Taurus for a few days following Saturday.

Asterisms are loose collections of stars that are associated only by their positions in the night sky above Earth similar to the constellation classification system. This means that some stars in an asterism could be closely located in space, while others just appear close together from our vantage point here onVisible with the naked eye, some asterisms are small and very simple, while others are much larger and more complex.

Following its close encounter with NGC1746, Mars will reach its closest distance to Earth on Dec. 1, 2022, when skywatchers should be able to distinguish some of its dark surface features.

Good Mars weather lets NASA's power-starved InSight lander live a little longerWith luck, InSight might survive until January.
