<p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr">Arabia Weather - Astronomy enthusiasts are preparing to follow a rare and unique event known as <strong>the “planetary procession,”</strong> in which six planets from the solar system line up in the night sky.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> This occasion is considered unique, as the alignment of Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus coincide in a straight line, and experts point out that this event is rare and special.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> In this context, the planets are expected to be clear and bright in the sky, with the exception of Uranus and Neptune, which may not be noticeably clear, so observing them may require the use of binoculars or a telescope.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Planetary alignment occurs as a result of all the planets rotating around the sun in their specific orbits, allowing them to fall on the same side of the sun as they move in their orbits, and thus we can see them in the sky at the same time. This alignment appears in the sky in the form of a straight line due to the presence of the planets in the ecliptic circle.</p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%B1%D8%AF%... also:</a></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%A3%D8%B1%D8%AF%... | Jordanian Astronomical Society: Planetary conjunctions at the end of May</a> </p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-media-max-width="560" style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"><p lang="en" style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> On June 3rd 2024, a very rare event known as the “Parade of Planets” will occur, where six planets will align in a straight line, and it will be visible just before sunrise <a href="https://t.co/OAwbkhtQFt">pic.twitter.com/OAwbkhtQFt</a></p> — TheTinderBlog (@TheTinderBlog) <a href="https://twitter.com/TheTinderBlog/status/1792221201319801127?ref_src=tws... 19, 2024</a> </blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"></p><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Where can a planetary procession be seen?</h2><p style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> The alignment can be seen from most parts of the world on <strong>June 3rd</strong> .
