Ahead of tomorrow’s alignment of 6 planets in the night sky, we wanted to post some information for anyone who is interested in heading out to have a look.
First off, which planets will be visible? Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Venus and Saturn will all be visible early in the evening on the 21st of January.

Spanning from East, through South as far as South West once darkness falls, all 6 planets will be visible.
The first of the planets will fall below the horizon just before 9pm.
If you manage to catch any pictures while the planets are out do let us know!
