Stargazers around the world are in for a treat! In a rare celestial event, almost all of the planets in our solar system will be visible in the night sky at the same time. This planetary parade is a fantastic opportunity for skywatchers to observe these celestial bodies and appreciate the vastness of our universe.
While Mercury will be challenging to spot due to its proximity to the Sun, the other planets – Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune – will be shining brightly in the night sky. This is a truly remarkable sight, and it’s a reminder of the wonders that lie beyond our own planet.

They happen to all be in their orbits on the same side of our sun, within the same degrees in our sky, so that we can see them,” she said. “That is special. “Really it’s about perspective. All of these planets are vast distances from us and from each other.”

A rare celestial phenomenon seen only once every few years will light up the sky this week.

Stargazers will be able to spot six of the planets in our solar system lining up in the sky in a ‘planetary parade’. Four of the planets – Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Venus – will even be visible to the naked eye.

So if you look up at the sky and spot four more eye-catching ‘stars’, they might actually be planets! And those with a telescope will see Neptune and Uranus join the party. NASA saysVenus and Saturn will be visible in the southwest just after sunset, with Jupiter overhead and Mars in the east completing the planetary display.

Planets closer to the sun, such as Venus – a rocky, Earth-sized orb – will be brighter and easier to see, she said. The planet, often called the “morning star” or “evening star”, goes through phases in a way similar to the moon and would be interesting to watch across a series of weeks.

Venus and Saturn had a “conjunction” in January, meaning they would appear closer together in the night sky, she said. Through a telescope, stargazers would even be able to see Saturn’s rings, appearing “edge on” like a sliver.

Mars and its features would be particularly clear, Allen said. The sun is in opposition, she said, meaning “you’re looking at Mars, and the sun is behind you”.

Jupiter – the fifth planet, and the largest – would appear near Orion, a constellation many Australians knew as “the saucepan”. With a telescope, she said, it was possible to make out the clouds on Jupiter’s surface and some of its moons.

Comets are like cats, he said: “They’ve got tails and behave the way they want to.” They were also unpredictable and this one would either be extremely bright and visible around 18 January, or it might fizz out.

Allen said the best view of the planet parade would be around 21 January as the moon waned. A basic sky map was helpful, she said, with many now available as phone apps. Local astronomical societies and observatories also often have more information or held special events.

“We’re very fortunate, all of us on Earth, that we are going to be seeing this alignment happen in some of the most famous and easily seen summer constellations … Orion and Gemini and Taurus,” she said.

“It’s school holidays. Take the kids out. It’s a chance where you can actually use binoculars and see pretty much all of the planets this month.”
