Venus, Jupiter, and Mercury Align in Rare 'Planet Parade'

A celestial event, often referred to as a "planet parade," is currently visible in the western sky shortly after sunset. This alignment features Venus as the brightest object, accompanied by Jupiter and the more elusive Mercury. While Venus and Jupiter are easily spotted, Mercury requires careful observation due to its proximity to the horizon and the sun. The parade is transient, with Mercury becoming difficult to see after June 15th. Additionally, there's a possibility of viewing the northern lights in northern U.S. states and Canada due to a potential geomagnetic storm. AI
