On February 28, after sunset, a unique astronomical event will take place - a planetary parade involving six planets. Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune participate in it.
What's important to know:
The phenomenon can be observed in all regions of the country after sunset.
Planets are located in the southwestern part of the sky.
Mercury, Venus, Saturn, and Jupiter are visible to the naked eye.
Uranus and Neptune can only be seen through binoculars or telescopes.
The best place to observe - open sky, without tall buildings.
A crescent moon is also visible in the sky, near which one can find Jupiter.
Mars will not participate in this parade - it will sink behind the horizon earlier.
