‘Planet parade’ to light up the sky through the end of the month
It’s a phenomenon known as a “planet parade,” where the planets appear to be marching across the night sky. Stargazers will be able to see Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars with just the naked eye for the rest of this month. A telescope will be needed to spot Uranus and Neptune.
