On June 3rd, a spectacular planetary alignment will be viewable from Earth's sky. Planetary parade is the alignment of 3 to 8 planets on the same side of the sun, on the sky from Earth. We see them lined up more or less in a straight line across the sky. There can be situations where all of the planets in the solar system are lined up on one side of the sun.

Not all of the planets are visible without a telescope, but many of them are. In this particular planetary parade, it's likely that we'll be able to see Mercury, Jupiter, Mars and Saturn but you would need a telescope to see Uranus and Neptune.
