🪐
A PLANETARY PARADE will take place in just three days, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars all lining up in the evening sky. This combination will not happen again this decade.
Four of them (Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Mars) will be visible to the naked eye, while Uranus and Neptune will require binoculars or a telescope.
The planets will appear just after sunset.

(439 posts)1. So what about Saturn?
Also, Mercury might be a tad hard to see because it's always very close to the horizon
