Uh, I think you need to check the date on that page:

"21 January 2003"

Yes i know that, but was the explaining info i gave, but i saw in the TV, this year Mars will be seen even closer than.

Sorry for the date... 😕

Here's the last couple of lines from the article:

A handful of even closer oppositions, seven to be exact, will occur between the August 2003 event and the year 3000, according to new calculations by Standish recently provided to SPACE.com. The next one that will be closer than this year's occurs in 2287.

The closest of all comes in 2729, when Mars will be about 34,580,000 miles (55,651,000 kilometers) from Earth

Thats really close for mars
