Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are visible to the naked eye this month and for part of February. Uranus and Neptune can be spotted with binoculars and telescopes.

From west to east, Saturn, Venus, Neptune, Uranus, Jupiter and Mars will make an arc across Wyoming’s night sky in a parade of planets Friday and

Skywatchers can spot Venus, Saturn, Jupiter and Mars in the night sky with the naked eye, but two other planets might need a telescope to be seen.

Have you heard of the “planetary parade” that’s happening in the night skies? For much of January and February, you have the chance to see six planets in our solar system after dark, although two — Uranus and Neptune — will be hard to see without a telescope or high-powered binoculars.

The night sky will offer stargazers a special sight for the next several weeks: Right now, all planets except Mercury can be seen after sundown—then, in late February, the missing planet will join the line-up.

Because planets always appear in a line, the alignment isn't anything out of the norm. What's less common is seeing so many bright planets at once.

You aren't too late to catch a glimpse of a so-called 'planet parade' in the night sky, although to see them all, you might want to grab a telescope.
