The first spacewalk for ordinary citizens</a><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> 6 planets and the moon</h2> A "parade of planets" typically includes at least five planets lined up on one side of the sun in a sector spanning about 160 degrees, according to the Moscow Planetarium Observatory, as reported by the Russian news site Sputnik. In this phenomenon, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and the Moon will line up on one side of the Sun, in a sector of about 160 degrees. If the weather is clear, some of the planets in this procession will be visible to the naked eye early in the morning before sunrise, while the rest will require the use of a telescope. According to Star Walk, most of the planets, such as Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn, will be visible to the naked eye, while you will need a telescope to spot Neptune and Uranus. Mercury will be close to the horizon, making it more challenging to see. The planets will also appear in different colors and appear at different times, which can help you distinguish between them. <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/%D9%81%D9%8A%20%D8%AD%D8%AF%D8%AB%20%D9%81%D9%84%D9%83%D9%8A%20%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%AF%D8%B1..%206%20%D9%83%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%83%D8%A8%20%D8%AA%D8%B5%D8%B7%D9%81%20%D9%81%D9%8A%20%D9%85%D9%88%D9%83%D8%A8%20%D9%85%D8%B0%D9%87%D9%84%20%D9%8A%D9%85%D9%83%D9%86%20%D8%B1%D8%B5%D8%AF%D9%87%20%D8%BA%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%8B.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 450px;" /><h2 style=";text-align:left;direction:ltr"> Colors and positions of the planets during the planetary parade</h2> Saturn will appear yellowish in the constellation Aquarius and will be visible late in the evening. Neptune, which is not visible to the naked eye, will next appear near the constellation Pisces, followed by Uranus in the constellation Taurus, which will require a telescope to view. At this time, Saturn and Neptune will be heading toward the western horizon, while Jupiter and Mars, which are visible to the naked eye, will be rising in the constellation Taurus near the waning crescent. Mercury will be the last planet to appear at dawn, and will be visible to the naked eye in the constellation Leo just before sunrise. <img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/uploads-2020/%D9%81%D9%8A%20%D8%AD%D8%AF%D8%AB%20%D9%81%D9%84%D9%83%D9%8A%20%D9%86%D8%A7%D8%AF%D8%B1..%206%20%D9%83%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%83%D8%A8%20%D8%AA%D8%B5%D8%B7%D9%81%20%D9%81%D9%8A%20%D9%85%D9%88%D9%83%D8%A8%20%D9%85%D8%B0%D9%87%D9%84%20%D9%8A%D9%85%D9%83%D9%86%20%D8%B1%D8%B5%D8%AF%D9%87%20%D8%BA%D8%AF%D8%A7%D9%8B%20%282%29.jpg" style="width: 800px; height: 450px;" /> See also: <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D8%B9%D9%84%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%A1-... scientists produce water from lunar soil</a> <a href="https://www.arabiaweather.com/ar/content/%D9%81%D9%8A%D8%AF%D9%8A%D9%88-... | The sky of the Arab world witnessed the conjunction of the moon with the Pleiades star cluster at dawn today</a><hr /> Sources: Websites
