Since this Friday (03) a rare alignment of five planets in the Solar System is visible in the sky. During almost the entire month of June, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn can be observed with more intense brightness than usual, producing a phenomenon that has not occurred since 2004, as explained by specialized North American publications, such as the Sky & Telescope.
According to experts heard by the magazine, anyone who wants to observe the phenomenon more clearly needs to use binoculars, looking for it on the eastern horizon, preferably 30 minutes before sunrise.
The predicted date when the conjunction of planets will be most evident is June 24, when the crescent moon will also be aligned, shining between Venus and Mars.
