We’re about to witness a rare seven-planet alignment in our night sky. Here’s your last-minute guide to catch this spectacular event:

 Find a dark spot away from city lights ASAP
 Start watching right after sunset in your local time
 Look west first for Venus and Mercury – they’ll disappear quickly!
 Scan for Mars and Jupiter – they’ll be the easiest to spot
 Bring binoculars or a telescope for Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune

Remember:
The planets won’t form a perfect line, but they’re all on the same side of the Sun
Saturn is tricky to see tonight due to its closeness to the Sun
Best viewing is about 45 minutes after sunset

This alignment won’t happen again until 2040, so don’t miss out! Whether you’re an astronomy pro or just love gazing at the stars, tonight’s your chance to feel connected to the vastness of our solar system.
