The parade of the planets of the Solar System will begin on June 3

Interesting facts 3 June 2024 7060

All the planets of the Solar system, except Earth, will be located on one side of the Sun on June 3, but it will be impossible to see the parade of planets because of the luminary, whose bright rays will prevent you from seeing celestial bodies at this moment, the Institute for Space Research of the Russian Academy of Sciences reported.

It is noted that on June 3, all the planets will be located near the Sun on one side of it in this order - the Sun, Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Uranus, Mars, Neptune and Saturn, RIA Novosti reports.

It is specified that all the planets will be located in a sector of about 90 degrees (from the northeast to the southeast horizon), but will not be visible because they will be lost in the bright rays of the Sun. Only Saturn will be visible for a very short time very low above the horizon in a clear sky before sunrise.

In addition, on June 3, a thin crescent of the waning Moon will join the planets, it will be close to Mars, and on June 4 there will be only 6 arc minutes between Mercury and Jupiter.
