If you're wanting to see a parade of planets, experts say later this month may be better for viewing an actual celestial show..
Folks who are expecting to see a dazzling parade of planets on Monday June 3 may be disappointed by what they end up seeing in the sky and, instead, experts are saying they should manage their expectations and wait until the end of the month to see the planetary alignment .
The past couple of months have been pretty eventful for backyard astronomers. First, the solar eclipse in April, then the northern lights made a rare appearance in May, and now a parade of planets will make its 2024 debut.
Stargazers are supposed to be able to see six planets, Jupiter, Mercury, Uranus, Mars, Neptune and Saturn, aligned.
However, experts from NASA and Astronomers Without Borders both agree that it won't be the best time to see the planetary parade. That's because Uranus, Mercury and Jupiter will be swallowed up by the sun's light and be too close to the horizon to be visible.
Northern lights: Northern lights in US were dim compared to 'last time mother nature showed off': What to know
"To me, the closest thing to a planet parade is June 29th, when you’ll have Saturn, the third-quarter Moon, Mars, and Jupiter arrayed across the sky at dawn," Preston Dyches, a public engagement specialist for NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory told USA TODAY. Dyches has a background in astronomy and hosts NASA's " What's Up ," a monthly video series that describes what's happening in the night sky.
Andrew Fazekas, the communications manager for Astronomers Without Borders, says that when it comes to the planetary parade on June 3, it will be nearly impossible to see all the planets with the naked eye.
Both Fazekas and Dyches agree that it's better to see the planetary parade on June 29, instead.
On June 3, Jupiter, Mercury and Uranus are going to be "way too close to the sun," said Fazekas. So, it will be difficult to see those three planets.
So, folks who do decide to rise before the sun does on Monday morning just to get a glimpse at this celestial phenomenon could be setting themselves up for disappointment.
In this case, good things come to those who wait. And waiting until the end of the month will give stargazers a better chance at viewing the planets.
"If you're patient and you wait until the end of the month, these planets will move farther away from the sun higher up in the early morning sky," Fazekas told USA TODAY "So, that you will get an easier chance to pick them out in the sky.
Folks will not only get a better view of the planetary parade if they wait until June 29, but they'll be able to gaze at the stars on Friday night into Saturday morning, instead of having to view it during the work week like they would this Monday morning.
People are expecting to see something amazing the morning of June 3, said Fazekas. But, he's worried the expectations set by two very viral celestial events, the solar eclipse and northern lights, and sensationalization on social media could raise people's expectations a bit too high and lead to a lackluster experience.
He adds that he's concerned one bad experience that was overhyped online could steal people's enthusiasm about astronomy.
"What worries me is that we set people up for disappointment," said Fazekas "And then they won't want to do it again."
According to Fazekas, he's never seen so many people interested in sky-watching, and he doesn't want the excitement to end.
According to a program called SkySafari Pro, you will be able to see the following during the planetary parade on June 29:
Basically, it's when the planets form a straight line and look like they're marching across the night sky and form a sort of space parade.
It's also known as a large planetary alignment, states Delaware Online , a part of the USA TODAY Network.
According to Fazekas, you will still need binoculars and telescopes to see some of the planets.
"Neptune is a planet that you need strong binoculars or a small telescope to be able to see," said Fazekas. "And it's not easy to find either."
Folks who go out to stargaze on June 28, will be able to see Neptune right next to the moon. On June 29, it will be farther away from the moon, and be above it instead.
Apps, like Skyview on the Apple app store, can turn people's phones into a tool that helps them identify celestial bodies in the night sky.
According to Fazekas, people will need to do the following to get a view of the planetary parade:

WASHINGTON - Virgin Galactic on June 8 successfully completed its last spaceflight before heading into a two-year pause on commercial operations to upgrade its fleet, as the space tourism company seeks to finally turn a profit.
“Galactic07 is back on terra firma, now as astronauts!” the company said on X, formerly Twitter, referring to a team of two pilots and two passengers.
“Our pilots, crew and spaceship have landed safely at Spaceport America, New Mexico.”
A huge carrier plane took off from the runway at 8.31am Mountain Time and climbed to an altitude of some 13,500m over approximately 50 minutes.
After that, it released from under its wings a spaceplane that soared at supersonic speed to the edge of space, where the passengers were able to enjoy a few minutes of weightlessness and admire the Earth’s curve.
It landed on the same runway at 9.41am, having accelerated to Mach 2.96, almost three times the speed of sound.
One of the private was Mr Tuva Atasever, a Turkish space agency astronaut, whose seat was contracted through another space company, Axiom, while the names of the other three were revealed only after landing.
They were Mr Anand “Andy” Harish Sadhwani, a propulsion engineer at SpaceX, New York real estate developer and aeroplane pilot Irving Izchak Pergament, and Italian investment adviser Giorgio Manenti.
During the flight, Mr Atasever wore custom headgear with brain activity monitoring sensors to collect physiological data, a dosimeter, and two commercially available insulin pens to examine the ability to administer accurate insulin doses in microgravity, Virgin said, in a statement.
It was the seventh commercial flight for the company founded in 2004 by British tycoon Richard Branson, in an emerging suborbital tourism market where its main competitor is Blue Origin, owned by Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos.
It was also the final flight for its current spaceplane called VSS Unity, which it intends to replace with two next-generation “Delta class” ships, currently under construction in Arizona, with test flights due in 2025 before commercial operations in 2026.
The future of the company is at stake as it seeks at long last to get into the black. Virgin is burning through cash, losing more than US$100 million (S$134 million) in each of the past two quarters, with its reserves standing at US$867 million at the end of March.
It also laid off 185 people, or 18 per cent of its workforce, late in 2023. Its shares are currently trading at 85 cents, down from US$55 in 2021, the year Mr Branson himself flew, garnering global headlines.
While similar in appearance to Unity, the Delta ships will carry six passengers, compared to the current four. Seat prices will be set at US$600,000 and up to 125 flights are projected per year, the company says, hoping to turn around its fortunes.
Some are sceptical, however.
“Virgin Galactic investors can look forward to owning a stock generating essentially zero revenue for the next 18 to 30 months – and that’s if everything goes as planned, and the Delta program doesn’t get delayed,” The Motley Fool wrote, in a note to investors this week.
Blue Origin, which launches on a small suborbital rocket, resumed crewed flights in May after its own hiatus of nearly two years, though it experienced an anomaly with one of the three landing parachutes failing to fully inflate, which could delay the next mission. AFP
