Earth's Date With Mars!

NASA scientists had fixed up a date between the Earth and the Mars. They had told that on 14th February 2024, Earth and Mars, while orbiting around the Sun, would be in a straight line and while doing so, would be very close to each other.

The last time I allowed someone to take my pic was when they made my Aadhar card. (And the results were discouraging enough to make me continue my aversion for the camera.)
