Rare Planetary Parade of Seven Planets Peaks on February 28

The alignment of all seven visible planets in the solar system will be the last such event until 2040, offering a unique celestial display for stargazers.

A rare planetary alignment, also known as a 'planetary parade,' will peak on February 28, 2025, featuring all seven planets visible from Earth.
This celestial event includes Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, though the latter three will require binoculars or a telescope to observe.
The planetary parade has been ongoing since January but will reach its most complete and visible alignment on February 28, marking the last such occurrence until 2040.
Best viewing times are approximately 45 minutes after sunset, with Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Uranus visible to the naked eye, and Mercury, Saturn, and Neptune harder to spot due to their faintness or proximity to the Sun.
Stargazers are advised to find locations with minimal light pollution and clear skies for optimal viewing, as the event will be visible across much of the world, including India and parts of the U.S.
