Mars is approaching opposition. Has anyone here had a good view yet? What have you seen and with what instrument?
I've only used my ETX so far, and that was on an unsteady night with Mars low down. So nothing was visible except a reddish smimmery disk.

Yes, My naked eyes with glasses and my brain. Mars is brighter and larger than Antares. i just need clear skies to the south around and after midnight, which I may not have tonight.

You can plainly see the disk; generally I used to be able to see evidence of the polar ice caps, but... probably my eyes are getting worse, but I haven't seen a discernible difference this month - using a 10" reflector.
