Star Report with Michele Woodland of Maria Mitchell Association – Planetary Alignment
Join Michele Woodland of the Maria Mitchell Association as she talk planetary alignment. This week the planets Jupiter, Mercury, Uranus, Venus and Mars will be lined up in an arc formation visible near the moon. The planets merely look aligned from our vantage point on Earth, but in reality are very far apart from each other. However, this phenomena is still very interesting to look at and is visible best shortly after sunset.
