Mars, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn should be visible to the naked eye, but get a telescope and you can spot Neptune and Uranus.

Starting up again Saturday, a sweeping view of our solar system will glow in the night sky. The planetary alignment, or a “planet parade” according to the internet, will grace our night sky just after dusk,

To help people view the parade, Mr Dury has shared photographs detailing where the planets are appearing in the sky. "The bright planets will certainly be visible like Venus, Jupiter, Saturn and Mars. "For the dimmer planets, Uranus and Neptune, you may want to use a pair of binoculars or a small telescope to see those," he said.

The night sky will feature a parade of its own in the coming weeks, with several planets visible for sky watchers to enjoy.

Known as the "Parade of Planets," the celestial event will feature appearances from Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Venus, Neptune and Saturn through the end of January, according to Farmer's Almanac. Mercury will emerge in the night sky at the end of February, replacing Saturn.

An extraordinary astronomical phenomenon will illuminate the sky as stargazers are urged to look up to catch a glimpse of the event.
