Click on a city on the map or list below to view the path that Mars takes across the night sky at that location.

All of the views shown are for August 27 at 10 p.m. local time. The one exception is Fairbanks, Alaska, where we present a midnight view because Mars is so low on the horizon.

Look in the southeastern sky to find Mars.

The farther north you are above the equator, the lower Mars appears on the horizon.

Mars is higher in the sky in the southern hemisphere compared with the northern hemisphere
