Mars  will be about +0.7 magnitude and Aldebaran is +0.85 magnitude.You can see where the Moon is yourself, and it is nowhere near Mars and Aldebaran. So Mars will not be appearing "side by side"with the Moon. Indeed the Moon has got a Lunar eclipse booked in its  diary for August 28th and it is rather curious that the hoaxsters, who  claim to know so much about the Moon, do not seem to know about this!</blockquote>
