You might want to keep your eyes on the skies through next month: Six planets will align in January and February.

Though the planets are always “aligned,” seeing more than four in the sky is more uncommon. February’s lineup is a chance to glimpse all seven in one sweeping view.

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.

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.

Four planets will visible to the naked eye this week - a rare occurrence that only happens once every few years. UK skies will be graced by the rare 'planetary parade', showing Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn in a line.
