How you can see six planets all at once

Six planets—Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Neptune, and Uranus—are currently aligning in a rare celestial event visible to stargazers worldwide. This planetary parade began in late January and will continue through February, with the best viewing opportunities occurring just after sunset when looking toward the western horizon. While some planets like Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn can be seen with the naked eye, Neptune and Uranus require binoculars or telescopes for optimal viewing.
