Six of our cosmic neighbors are expected to line up across the night sky tonight, in what has been dubbed a "planetary parade".

Look up through the month for a dazzling parade of planets
A parade of planets will be visible to skywatchers around the globe through the rest of this month and into February. At least four planets — Venus, Jupiter, Mars and Saturn — should be visible with the naked eye if you’re not in a light-polluted downtown area.
