Is Two moons on August 27 2010 true?

No.

This hoax started in year 2003 when the Mars made its closest approach to Earth in about 60,000 years in that August. At that time this claim was made and it was not truw in that year. Some indicate that Mars got brighter since that year but it is still not enough for people to see it as two moons. This hoax of Two moons crops up every year in August since then.
