Florida: Stargazers are being encouraged to look at the sky tonight as four planets align in a rare astrological display.
The planets will be visible to the naked eye, appearing like bright stars in perfect formation, a phenomenon known as the “planetary parade.”
Mars, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn will all be visible aligning in the sky for the first time since 947AD.
The moon will seem to dance among the planets, passing below Saturn on April 25, Mars the next day and Jupiter and Venus on April 27, according to Space.com.
People should head out an hour before sunrise, and look southeast where you would normally see the sun come up.
NASA said that if the conditions are right, you should see Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn in a line without the need for binoculars or telescopes.
Jupiter will be the second-brightest planet but will be the lowest on the horizon, so it may be difficult to see right now. However, as the planets continue their dance it will be higher in the sky, NASA said.
The planets’ movements are just the beginning of a rarer celestial event.
