This June, there is a snack where they will be able to view five planets, visible in naked eyes, arranged in a natural order from the sun when scanning the horizon. These five planets are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. A spectacular celestial performance will be seen towards the eastern horizon before the sun rises and covers the view. Those living in the northern hemisphere will have to look east and south. Those in the southern hemisphere should look at pleasant views east and north.
It is a fairly common event to see two or three planets join together in close proximity in one connection. However, observe the combination of five planets. In December 2004, five eyeless planets were lined up for the last time. However, this sequence will bring Mercury and Saturn closer to each other.
While this arrangement should be seen this month, some dates are particularly important, according to Sky & Telescope.
June 3-4: On these two mornings, the separation between Mercury and Saturn will be minimal: only 91 degrees. Skygazers will be less than half an hour – from Mercury’s first appearance above the horizon to basically lost in the rising sun.
June 24: The planetary lineup will be more attractive this morning. Skygazers will have an hour to enjoy the parade. Although the separation of mercury and Saturn will increase to 107 degrees, the real wonder will be the crescent moon decline between Venus and Mars, the agent of the Earth.
Astronomers say that even on certain days of a month, everyone should have a lot of opportunities to see these five planets. So make sure to wake up early and head towards your location to the horizon’s accessible landscape.
