NASA Announces New Date for Spectacular Planet Parade
TL;DR
The much-anticipated "parade of planets" on June 3 was underwhelming, with only Saturn and Mars visible to the naked eye. NASA and experts clarified that the event was overhyped and that a more impressive planetary alignment will occur on June 29, featuring Saturn, the moon, Mars, and Jupiter. Another notable alignment is expected in early 2025.
