Hyderabad, India, February 26, 2025—A rare planetary alignment, or “planetary parade,” will take place on February 28, 2025, showcasing seven planets visible in the night sky. The planets involved are Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. While the first five planets can be seen with the naked eye, a telescope will be needed for observing Uranus and Neptune.
The best time to view this celestial event is just after sunset, before some planets set below the horizon. Stargazers are encouraged to find clear skies and areas with minimal light pollution for better visibility. This extraordinary alignment won’t occur again until 2040.
