Planet Parade 2025 is an incredible celestial event that promises to bring six planets into alignment. This rare event can be observed across the United States, with several astronomy events planned for enthusiasts to witness the alignment up close.

Mars will be making its closest approach to Earth in two years, and thus, the mighty red planet, named for the god of war himself, will appear brighter, bigger, and bolder in the night sky. This Martian exclamation point will further amplify the experience of the alignment.

A planet parade will be happening high above the earth. But there is a debate on whether it is as special as you may be seeing on social media.

Look up! Six planets grace the sky this month in what’s known as a "planetary parade," and most will be able to be seen with the naked eye.

Claims of a "rare planetary alignment" are misleading; it's just visible planets. A true "golden conjunction" occurs on Sept. 8, 2040.

Planetary alignments aren't rare, but they can be when they involve six of the eight planets in our solar system.

You might want to keep your eyes on the skies through next month: Six planets will align in January and February.

A handful of planets in the solar system are expected to line up in the night sky for a few days in January 2025. Here's when to look up at the stars.
