Missed the northern lights? Planets to align in the sky this summer

4 months ago 9

NEW YORK (PIX11) – A rare celestial event is set to grace the sky next month and you won't need special glasses or an exact location to see it.

A large planetary alignment, known as a planet parade, will be mostly visible to the naked eye just before dawn on Monday, June 3.

Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune will be on display. You'll need high-powered binoculars or a telescope to see Uranus and Neptune.

The same alignment will also happen on Aug. 28.
