Hyderabad: One of the greatest planetary displays after years is going to happen on January 21, 2025. The planetary parade, also known as planetary alignment, is a rare visible heavenly phenomenon.
The celestial event consists of six planets — Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Mars, Neptune, and Uranus to be lined up in a row across the sky. Four of these planets — Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn — could be visible to the naked eye, whereas Uranus and Neptune can be spotted through a telescope.
The Moon is also likely to be visible in this planetary parade, which means it will be seven celestial bodies lined up at once in the sky.
This planetary alignment will be as an astronomical moment to gaze. This can be viewed in the morning sky, especially before sunrise and also dawn. To have a better gaze, it will be beneficial to use a telescope or binoculars.
The planets orbiting around the solar system on the same plane are known as the ecliptic. This planetary parade will be visible and seen along the ecliptic which is sort in the form of a line.
