Planetary Parade 2025

Grab your binoculars, just after sunset tonight all seven planets — Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Venus and Saturn — will be visible. To catch Neptune and Uranus, you’ll need the help of a telescope. 

Planetary parades aren’t necessarily rare on their own, but the addition of Mercury and Venus makes the lineups more exciting, as they orbit closer to the Sun than Earth and can be hard to see, NASA said.

Look to the southwest to see this celestial event.

Choose a location with minimal light pollution for the best chance to see them all.
