The planet parade will be among the most special celestial events in 2025. However, many wonder what is a parade of planets.

A planet parade like the one beginning tonight is quite uncommon, occurring once every 10-20 years. Here are the planets you can see and when to look.

Some of the brightest planets in the night sky are visible right now, with six of them forming a 'planet parade' across the night sky for at least the next month.

Planets always appear in a line from our Earth-bound vantage, so the arrangement isn't anything out of the norm. What's less common, according to astronomers, is seeing so many bright planets at once.
