Is this by German calendar expert Sepp Rothwangl correct?

"At end of August 2003 the planet Mars will approach close to the Earth
as never before in last 2000 years and will shine much brighter and
bigger than Jupiter. On Wed., 27 Aug (CEP 245,283), the red planet will
be in opposition and one day later approach less than 58 million km to
Earth. Two days later Mars will arrive at its closest point (Perihelion)
on its path around the sun. The coinciding of planet Mars' opposition
with its Perihelion within only three days makes it a unique event.
Mars then will remain more than double bright and huge drawing his
opposition loop in the middle of the constellation Aquarius where it
will inspire human fantasy and frighten people, because they will think
the unusual object is an UFO.
Already now I can hear in my ears crazy fantasies of martial Aquarians
or unreal reliance of Raelians, who expect a visit from outer space.
Surely I am right if I prophesy that there will be again a lot of star
of Messiah forecasts or end of the world interpretations, as happened
before with comet Hale Bopp.
In ancient times however the extremely bright Mars looping the loop in a
new spring equinox constellation surely would have been significant as a
signal for new times or Saints marching in."
