When a planet is in opposition, it means that the Earth is directly between the Sun and the planet. This alignment results in the planet being at its closest approach to Earth (as the distance is minimized when Earth is between Sun and the planet in this configuration) and also, since the Sun is shining on the side of the planet facing Earth, its face is fully illuminated by the Sun.
