Keep an eye on the sky after sunset on February 28th, because six planets are lining up for a pretty rare celestial show. Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune will all be visible in the evening sky at the same time. Now, four of those, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn, should be visible to the naked eye, although Mercury can be a bit tricky to spot depending on how clear your horizon is. Uranus and Neptune, on the other hand, will need binoculars or a telescope to check out. It’s not every day you get a lineup like that, so if skies are clear at the end of the month, it could be a pretty great night to look up for a change.
Check out this website I found to see if you can get a good view at the end of the month!
