Awesome! This part had me confused at first (it's too early in the morning... )
At a modest 75-power magnification, Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye. Mars will be easy to spot.
I'm assuming this means if I pull out my telescope, I should use the 75x so I can see it as I would the moon without the telescope? Cool.. now I need to find a place away from the city lights...
