At first, you might not notice anything at all. But look again. For the next month, the planets are aligned. Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune will all be in an (almost) straight line in the night sky, known as a planetary parade.“Seeing them in a line is exciting,” says Dr Becky Smethurst, astrophysicist at the University of Oxford and author of A Brief History of Black Holes. “It is something that we have already been seeing thr…

Venus, Mars, Jupiter en Saturnus zijn met het blote oog te zien. Voor Uranus en Neptunus is minstens een goede verrekijker nodig.
