Here a is my photo of the planetary alignment. It is a combination of two photos. One earlier to get Jupiter and Mercury before they set and one when it was darker to get Uranus and Mars. The positions are highlighted in the second image. Mercury, Jupiter, and Uranus might not show up in the image after it is reduced for social media, but I promise it is there 😆. #planetaryalignment #mars #uranus #venus #mercury #jupiter #sunset #evening #nikon #nokonz5 #astrophotography

The #planetaryalignment will happen the evening of March 28, Star Walk said. It'll be visible a few days before and after, but March 28 will be the best day for viewing.
How to see the planetary alignment
The best time for viewing will be to face the horizon, or west, after sunset #Astronomy
