An unusual phenomenon can be seen on the night of June 24
Residents of Russia will be able to see on the night of Friday, June 24, a unique parade of planets. Izvestia writes about it.
As the newspaper notes, seven planets will line up at once: Jupiter, Mercury, Saturn, Venus, Mars, Neptune and Uranus.
At the same time, the Russians will not be able to see all the planets – due to the remoteness, some of them cannot be seen even with a telescope.
It is noted that the crescent moon will be located above Mars and Venus. Best of all, this astronomical phenomenon will be noticeable from 2:30 in Moscow and the Moscow region, as well as Nizhny Novgorod, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Omsk, Krasnoyarsk and Novosibirsk. However, Mercury will not be visible in these cities due to sunrise.
From 3:30 to 4:00 the best conditions for viewing the parade of planets will be in the southern regions of Russia.
Experts note that the next time a similar astronomical phenomenon will occur on September 8, 2040.
Then Mars, Jupiter, Mercury, Venus and Saturn should line up in one row, between the latter there will be a crescent moon.
