Mark your calendars for once-in-a-lifetime 'planet parade' in February
Technology
Heads up, stargazers!
On February 28, 2026, six planets—Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—will line up across the sky in a rare "planet parade."
The show kicks off just after sunset and will be visible pretty much everywhere on Earth.
Tips to enjoy the celestial show
For the clearest look, find a spot away from city lights—think open fields or deserts.
Jupiter and Venus will be easy to spot since they'll shine brightest; Mercury will be closer to the horizon and a bit faint.
Uranus and Neptune are trickier—you'll probably need binoculars or a stargazing app to help you find them.
Don't forget to set a reminder for this cosmic event!
