On most nights, viewers see Mars as a faint star-like light. When it is closest to the earth, it shines brighter than regular stars and has a distinct reddish hue. Dust in the atmosphere of the planet causes the distinct red-orange color. At times, Mars is positioned too close to the line of sight for the sun to be viewed easily. Peak times for viewing Mars run in a two-year cycle. A modest telescope allows viewers to see Mars in more detail.

The stomach complaints most strongly associated with anxiety and depression appear to be conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). However, a 2011 Stanford University study discovered that even short-term digestive problems can lead to mental health issues later.
