Planet Parade 2025: When, Where And How To See All Planets Visibly Align In The Night Sky This Week

Located in Arizona, this observatory is represented here by Dr Gerard van Belle, its director of science, who explains the configuration of the planet parade by comparing it to a vinyl record, with the sun in the middle and the grooves in the disk representing the orbits of the other planets. The mention highlights Lowell Observatory as an authoritative scientific institution involved in helping the public understand celestial events like the rare seven-planet parade. - Liv Kelly
