June 3 – Planetary lineup
On June 3, 2024, a spectacular planetary alignment will be visible from various parts of the world, including India. This rare celestial event will feature six planets: Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, appearing in a line across the sky.
In India, you can witness this “parade of planets” just before dawn. To get the best view, find a spot with a clear view of the horizon and minimal light pollution. Most of the planets will be visible to the naked eye, with Saturn and Mars being particularly easy to spot due to their brightness and distinctive colors. Uranus and Neptune will require a telescope for better viewing due to their distance and faintness .
So, mark your calendars and set your alarms early to enjoy this extraordinary alignment. Happy stargazing!
