Seven planets to align: How to watch the 2025 planetary parade

Hindustan Times  

A rare planetary parade will grace the evening sky on February 28 as planets in the solar system align. NASA says six planets may be visible for much of the week, giving stargazers a chance to witness this celestial event just a month after the last planetary spectacle. Astronomers and stargazers call these events “planet parades,” as the planets appear to form a straight line, resembling a march across the night sky. “It's starting to show signs that it might be gearing up to flare into brightness.” Meanwhile, space enthusiasts will be looking up to catch the planetary alignment, where seven planets will line up in the night sky.
