#PlanetaryAlignment

Missed the best view of all the #planets this week and Andalucia's been uncharacteristically cloudy! But here's a nice view tonight of the #Moon, #Venus (bottom right), and #Jupiter (top left) #PlanetaryAlignment 🔭

A deep blue twilight sky with three little bright dots: Jupiter, the moon, and Venus. The ugly concrete facade of my building is at left!

In other news, it is night time across the US. If you have some clear sky, check out the alignment of planets. I used a free app, "stellarium" to visualize them better due to urban light pollution.

I spotted Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Uranus. Saturn dipped below the horizon before it got dark, and Neptune is very dim. #PlanetaryAlignment

I will be very interested to see pictures of the #PlanetaryAlignment especially from any of you who use a professional process, like an eyepiece between the camera and the telescope. I'm going the primitive route, hoping that I don't shake the camera.

And yes, it's really an arc, not a straight line. I understand elliptical orbit. And maybe it's overhyped, but anything that the world can experience together, like those crazy low latitude Auroras, or the Solar Eclipse, are the kinds of events which make me feel a connection to everyone.

🌍✨ February 28 the Planetarium of Brussels informs ✨🔭🧪
Over the last few days, there's been a lot of talk about a ‘planetary parade’, but beware of exaggerations! Yes, all the planets in the solar system are visible at the same time, but it's not that obvious.
👁️ What can you see?
🔹 To the naked eye: Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and (with a little difficulty) Saturn.
🔹 With binoculars/telescope: Uranus and Neptune.

The overly hyped "planetary alignment" on Friday is really a disappointment ready to happen - and it will be cloudy in CT. Saturn, Mercury and distant Neptune are lost in the glare of the setting sun. Uranus is too dim to see naked eye, but Venus in the West, Jupiter overhead and Mars farther East are easy picking.

I really want to see the planetary alignment tomorrow. Being Britain, and being February, the clouds here rarely cooperate and I don't want to wait another 15 years to see this.

Maybe I should try getting out of the city. Maybe I should steal a friends 'scope to get a full view.

Hmm.

Immerhin zwei Planeten konnte ich gestern erwischen! At least I could see two planets peaking out from behind the clouds yesterday 😍

Graphic sans the text from NYT article on the alignment of all the planets this week could be an album cover all by itself. 🤘🏼
