Mars so close to earth on August 27th that we will be viewing two moons on that date: Hoax

Do you remember the story that was doing the rounds via email that Mars will be so close to the earth on August that it will actually look like we have two moons. Well it seems as if this story was a hoax, which I am upset about as I would have loved to have seen it, but what a sucker I was to believe it.

The email said that mars will l look as big as the moon itself with the naked eye, oh hell as I write this I start to think that I am so stupid, how could I be taken in by this stupid hoax.

Were you taken in by this hoax?
