Moon Joins Mars, Saturn, and Uranus in Rare Planetary Parade on July 12PreviousNext

Before sunrise on July 12, skywatchers can observe a rare planetary parade featuring the Moon appearing near Mars, Saturn, and Uranus in the eastern sky. Mars and Saturn will be visible to the naked eye, while Uranus will require binoculars or a telescope due to its faintness. This celestial event, though informally termed a planetary parade, offers a unique opportunity to see multiple planets aligned from Earth's perspective.
