A parade of planets with seven luminaries will be lined up and lighting the night sky this week, people.
Only after the sunset on February 28, 2025, Venus, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune will approximate our pleasure of viewing.
A planetary extension descends, up, when more than two planets are lined up in the sky.
How often do six planets line up?
There are eight planets in our solar system, nine if you calculate the planet of dwarf Pluto.
Because we live on Earth, the maximum number of planets we can see from our advantage, for now, is seven – or eight, if Pluto is in the mix.
If the three planets are lined, it is known as a mini-planet stretch; Four do for a small planetary extension; Five or more are considered large; Seven is equal to a large extension; And with the rare ultra case that eight are in approximation, we have a full planetary extension.
When we have five or more planets that appear in a small area of heaven, an extension improves in parade status. Parade is not an official astronomical term and is used quickly, loose and with a strange touch than the space experts usually allow.
A planetary extension or a parade of six planets has been visible since the first part of February. However, on Friday, February 28, Mercury joins the heaven soup, making a seven delightful and improving the Sky Night scene in a large stretch.
The last time there was a parade of seven plans was in June 2022.
Whether you call it a planetary stretch or a planetary parade, it is not uncommon for many planets to be visible together in the night sky. According to Nerds known in NASA, parades with seven plans “are not super rare, but they do not happen any year.”
However, an approximation of the six planets is quite regular and can occur at least every year. A similar parade happened last June, but only two planets were visible to the naked eye.
How will they accumulate on 28 February 2025
In any number, a stretch does not mean that all planets are in a straight line in space- on the contrary, they are closely assembled on one side of the sun and, in the case of this week, making more a bow long than a straight line.
Four planets – Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Mars – will be visible to the naked eye.
To capture the attention of Uranus and Neptune, you will need a telescope or a pair of binoculars. Saturn will be more elusive of the lamps, and because it will hang close to the sun, you will need to look at a specific time.
Depending on your location, Saturn may not be visible.
The beauty of this week’s extension is that it coincides with the new moon in Pisces, which means that the sky will be at its darkest point in the lunar cycle, strengthening the visibility of the planets – including the weakest lamps such as Uranus and Neptune.
How to see the planetary extension on Friday evening
In terms of how brightness will be shocked, consider this:
Mars, looking for red and red, will be the highest in the sky in the constellation of the twins.
Jupiter, the second only for Venus in shine this month, will be slightly lower in the bull constellation.
Uranus is another in the lineup between the constellations of Dashi and Taurus.
In completely dark and clear conditions, Uranus is visible to the naked eye. However, the world is an imperfect place, so to guarantee that you will capture a brief appearance of the side planet of the absurd and ignorance rotation, binoculars or a telescope is recommended.
Closer to the western horizon, near the constellation of Pisces, you will see the hard to lose Venus, the brightest planet in the sky. Nearby, and still in Pisces, it is Neptune, who will require binoculars or a telescope to watch.
Even closer to the horizon will be Little, Talking Mercury, beautifully sitting and near the Sun in Aquarius constellation.
The most difficult to see – and the most difficult in the softness of death – is Saturn. Typically, the planet of strong knocking and the bridegroom is easy to see in the night sky, but at the 28th, it will be very close, very close to the sun.
To catch the look of a ring, find a time when the sun is under the horizon, but Saturn has not yet set.
Your best bet is to use an astronomy application like Sky Tonight. Find Saturn on the sky map and use the time machine to determine the perfect moment to return to the sky.
While the seven of these planets will technically Be it possible to see, the dimming and proximity of Saturn and Mercury in the sun make a complete appearance impossible.
Best time to see the stunning show of heaven
Experts suggest starting your observations shortly after sunset when planets will begin to emerge from the golden brightness of the sunset. The optimal viewing is in the early evening when the sky is still dark.
Aim to look up and be ready as soon as the sun is plunged down the horizon.
Just as with all the scary cosmic phenomena, the closer you approach in the communities of the dark heaven, and the further away from the pollution of light, the more your main appearance will be.
The good news? The brightness of the planets in Cahots with the dark moon’s dark sky ensures that as long as the weather allows, you will still be able to see the show in light -contaminated cities.
When will the next planetary extension occur?
The next time the six planets will be approximated will be August 10 this year when a big morning approximation of Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, Neptune and Saturn will be visible.
According to Star Walk, the next time the seven planets will be approximated as this will be in late 2028.
Get it while you can, people.
The astrological importance of planetary extension
Astrologically speaking, when the planets line up on February 28, Saturn, Neptune, and Mercury will join the sun and moon in the fish’s opioid baths. Mars will be in the milk of the dark mother of cancer, Venus will burn in the hot dash blood, and Jupiter will be in hyperverbal, polemic like Cardio Gemini. Uranus will be moving away from the Bukolic pastures, motivated by the bull food.
For reference, this is a set of fish, energy people. So if it is challenging to distinguish dreams from reality, you find yourself by recording the poetry of consciousness, painting fingers with pastel, crying in advertising, or run toward the changed states and/or wings of your ex … well, the stars are probably to be blamed.
Good luck there.
