Six-Planet Alignment to Dazzle Skywatchers on June 3rd

Six planets—Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus—will align in a rare celestial event visible around sunrise next week. While Mars and Saturn may be seen with the naked eye, binoculars will be needed for Uranus and Neptune. The alignment will be visible globally, with the best views in dark areas looking east. Similar events will occur in the coming years, but this specific configuration won't reappear until March 2080.
