Rare 'planetary parade' will return to the evening sky this week — but you'll have to look at exactly the right time

An illustration of the planets in our solar system lined up against a blue starry background, with Venus then Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus.

A planetary parade is about to bring six of Earth's neighbors into the night sky at once — but it won't be easy to see.

If you can find an unobstructed view due west and clear skies on Saturday, Feb. 28, you may see the two inner planets, Venus and Mercury, close to Saturn, with Neptune, Uranus and Jupiter also in the night sky, according to NASA.
