Rare planetary parade caught on camera by our expert stargazers
Three astronomers have filmed video diaries for the BBC, showing us seven planets – Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Venus, Neptune, Mercury, and Saturn – that have all been visible in the sky above the UK this week.
Friday is the last day where the rare phenomenon known as a ‘planetary parade’ is visible in the sky, although clouds have obscured the view in some areas.
Join Dr Robert Massey, Dr Sheila Kanani, and Prof Catherine Heymans, who are located in different areas across the country, as they explain what planets you might be able to see.
