Catch the Planetary Parade Tonight ! 🌌✨ 2025 03 01

The stars may not be aligning on Friday night, but seven planets in our solar system just may be. For weeks, outer space enthusiasts have been gearing up for a planetary alignment, or "planetary parade," expected to conclude on Friday evening, just after dusk. Stargazers could have the chance to see Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune − with the right binoculars or telescope. Though the alignment isn't once-in-a-lifetime rare, the seven other planets in our solar system don't align every year, so it can be a spectacle to witness. Here's what to know about this weekend's planetary parade and how to see it.
