Skywatchers are getting a rare and beautiful reason to look west after sunset this weekend. A dazzling “Planet Parade” featuring Venus, Jupiter and Mercury will light up the evening sky over the next several nights, creating one of the most eye-catching celestial displays of late spring, as per a report by Forbes magazine.
The event may not involve every planet in the solar system, but astronomers say this kind of compact planetary gathering still offers a spectacular viewing opportunity for casual stargazers and astronomy enthusiasts alike.
