This month will see a passing moment where Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn – the five planets visible from Earth by the naked eye – will appear in a line from the horizon to the Moon.
The alignment of these five earthly neighbors will be visible from Wednesday, January 20 to Saturday, February 20.
Dr. Tanya Hill, senior curator at the Melbourne Planetarium, told Australian Geographic that if you don't catch the allignment this month, you’ll be able to see it again in August of this year, and then again in October 2018.
