In a rare cosmic event, five planets: Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, Uranus, and Mars, will align with the moon in a great arc across the sky, after sunset from March 25th to 30th.
Venus will be easiesr to see, but Uranus may require binoculars.

*snicker* Uranus will require binoculars.
Sorry.
This is very cool and I hope we don't have clouds so I can see Uranus.
Snicker.
Sorry. Can't stop.

Surely a mirror would be more helpful 😂
@Bliss similar happened last year...I think Saturn instead of Mercury though? Need something decent to see Uranus. It's like a tiny blue (or green?) haze. Pretty sure I was staring right at it and didn't see it and cloud/haze wasn't an issue. Just frustratingly difficult below a certain magnification. Meanwhile, Venus will blind you.
@Bliss As is the normal a front will come over and there will be clouds and rain or fog. I almost never get to see the good stuff. The whole time I lived in New England and PA I never saw the northern lights.
@Bliss
you may need a mirror to view Uranus
