It’s easy to forget that we’re only floating on a massive rock with so much going on in the globe, and nobody understands why. It’s really rather frightening how little Earth is in our solar system.
When you start zooming out. The good news is that we may sometimes see other planets rather well, and this evening, January 21, is a great opportunity to see a “planetary parade.”
When the six planets—Mars, Jupiter, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus, and Venus—all seem to align in the night sky as they revolve, this is known as a planetary procession.
It’s crucial to remember that this sky alignment is only visible from Earth. What time is the planetary procession taking place?
According to the BBC, the six planets can already be seen in the night sky, and in late February, Mercury, a sixth planet, will join the group.
