(CNN)On June 24, a rare five-planet alignment peaked on Mercury, Venus, and Mars. A magnificent view is possible. , Jupiter and Saturn are in the order of the planets.
Sky &According to telescope observation editor Diana Hanikainen, the event began in early June and became brighter and easier to see as the moon progressed.
On Friday, the party between Venus and Mars will be joined by a declining crescent and another celestial body will be added to the lineup. The moon represents the relative position of the earth in a linear shape. So this is where our planets appear in the order of the planets.
How to display the placement
Stargazer says he needs to see the eastern horizon clearly to find the incredible phenomenon. , Says Hani Kainen. Humans can see the planet's show with the naked eye, but binoculars are recommended for the best viewing experience, she added.
Some stargazers, including Hannikainen, are particularly excited about celestial events. She flew from her home west of Boston to a seaside town along the Atlantic Ocean, ensuring an optimal view of her alignment.
"I will go there with binoculars, look east and southeast, cross all fingers and toes, and that will be clear," said Hani Kainen.
You don't have to travel to get a glimpse of the action as it is visible to people all over the world.
Northern Hemisphere Stargazers can see the planet from the east to the southeast horizon, while Southern Hemisphere Stargazers need to see along the east to northeast horizon. The only requirement is a clear sky in the linear direction.
By the next day, she said, the moon would continue to orbit the earth and be out of alignment with the planet.
Sky &According to the telescope, if you miss the alignment of five planets in sequence, the next alignment will occur in 2040.
Lunar eclipse and solar eclipse
A partial solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes in front of the sun, but blocks only part of its light. To see the eclipse safely, wear proper eclipse glasses. The sun's rays can damage your eyes.
The October 25 partial solar eclipse is found in people in Greenland, Iceland, Europe, northeastern Africa, the Middle East, West Asia, India, and western China. Neither partial solar eclipse is visible from North America.
From 3:01 am to 8:58 am on November 8th, the total lunar eclipse of Asia, Australia, the Pacific Ocean, South America and North America will also be on display, but the moon will be in North America. Set for people in the eastern region.
Meteor shower
If you live in a city, you can drive to a place where the city lights are not scattered in the area and get the best view.
Find an open area where the sky looks wide. Make sure you have a chair or blanket so you can look straight up. It also adapts to the darkness and makes it easier to find meteors, without looking at your cell phone or other electronic device, and keeping an eye on it for about 20-30 minutes.
