Parade of Planets
The year 2024 is becoming very special for those interested in space. After the total solar eclipse in America and then the surprising Northern Lights in northern areas including Britain in May, now another rare astronomical event is happening in early June. Scientists have reported that today i.e. on June 3, six planets of the solar system have come in a straight line. This rare astronomical event has been called 'Parade of Planets'. The alignment of the planets will be most clear on Monday, which can be seen before sunrise. People can see this parade for several days.
Often many such events happen outside our earth, which are very surprising to know about. At the same time, some astronomical events can be seen from the Earth as well. June 3 is going to be a very special day for people interested in space and planets. On this day, a rare miracle can be seen in the sky. Actually, on June 3, many planets of the solar system will be visible from the Earth. During this, 6 planets will be seen in a straight line. According to a report, on this day Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune will be seen in a straight line in this parade. Such a view is seen when all the planets gather on one side of the Sun. The special thing is that this view can be seen from the earth as well.
Parade of Planets 2024
The parade of planets is used to define the rare position of planets in the solar system. The planets are aligned in such a way that they all appear to come in a straight line. Here it is important to understand that the alignment of planets is more of an illusion than a real phenomenon, which we feel due to their position in the sky. According to the US space agency NASA, when two or more planets come together in the sky and form a combination, it is called alignment. On Monday, Jupiter, Mercury, Uranus, Mars, Neptune, and Saturn will be seen in a straight line. Like many astronomical events, it will not be possible to see them with the naked eye.
The parade of planets can be seen across India as the skies are clear at this time. Since this alignment will last for several days, set an alarm for 4 am to see it every day before sunrise. It is summer season in India at this time, so the sunrise is happening earlier. Once the sun rises, it is difficult to see it from space.

Space.com has reported that those hoping to see this parade on June 3 are expected to be disappointed. NASA experts have said that June 3 is not the best time to see the parade of planets. On this day, Uranus, Mercury, and Jupiter will be immersed in sunlight and will be so close to the horizon that they will not be visible. NASA said in a release that only two of the six planets mentioned will be visible - Saturn and Mars. In early June, Jupiter and Mercury will be at or below the horizon in the morning and will not be visible. Preston Dyches, a NASA expert, told USA Today that the best time for the parade of planets is June 29, when you will see Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter in the sky with the Moon in the morning.

To see this rare sight, you will have to be ready with a telescope on Monday morning. This amazing event will be visible around sunrise around the world. You will need equipment to see it properly. During this time, Uranus and Neptune may appear blurry, while Jupiter and Mercury may lose their brightness due to their proximity to the Sun.
However, some planets can also be seen with the naked eye. Mars and Saturn may be easy to see. They can be seen earlier and slightly higher in the sky than other planets. On Monday, all these planets will be seen in a diagonal arrangement, in which Saturn will be at the top. After this, Neptune, Mars, Uranus, and Mercury will be seen. Jupiter will be closest to the horizon. According to scientists, it may be a little easier for people living in South Asian countries to see this rare sight.
