Planetary Parade

Name: Planetary Parade
Start: 2025-01-29T00:00:00-05:00
End: 2025-01-30T23:59:59-05:00

January 29 - January 30

Between Jan 21 and Feb 21, six of our neighboring planets will appear in the sky together: Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Venus, and Saturn. When a bunch of planets all gather on the same side of the sun like this, we call this fairly rare event a “planetary parade”.
Tonight’s moonless night is a great time to experience this. In the northern hemisphere, go out as soon as it’s properly dark after sunset.

Uranus and Neptune will be too faint to see without a telescope, but Mars, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn will all be visible to the naked eye.
