Five planets are to line up across the night sky in a rare display that will be visible at the end of March. Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Uranus will all be visible in a line across the sky shortly after sunset on March 28.
Huge Jupiter will be easy to see as will the bright Venus and our nearest neighbour Mars. Mercy and Uranus will be visible with a telescope or binoculars under ideal conditions.
Beth Biller, from the University of Edinburgh, told Mail Online: “Venus and Jupiter are both very bright and easy to pick out and you may have already seen them close together over the past few weeks.
