"At a modest 75-power magnification, Mars will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye."

My mother got it too, and forwarded it to EVERYBODY as is her habit. It's my habit to routinely check Snopes whenever I get chainmail from her.

Then again I was using a 12.5 inch light bucket.
The girl in chainmail is almost as good.
