For a few evenings around 28 February, every planet in the solar system will be visible in the night sky thanks to a rare great planetary alignment. Here's how to make sure you don't miss this planetary parade.

This phenomenon known as a "planet parade," will feature Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune all present at the same time along a line in the night sky on Friday, NASA says.

NEW YORK (AP) — Seven planets grace the sky at the end of February in what’s known as a planetary parade, though some will be difficult to spot with the naked eye. These planetary hangouts happen when several planets appear to line up in the night sky at once. They’re not in a straight line, but are close together on one side of the sun.
