Heck yeah, that’s really cool! Let’s hope for a clear sky: “On the evening of 28 February 2025, all seven of the other planets in the Solar System will appear in the night sky at the same time, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars all lining up in a neat row – a magnificent sky feast for the eyes known as a great planetary alignment.” https://www.sciencealert.com/a-rare-alignment-of-7-planets-is-about-to-take-place-in-the-sky

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Hmm, their illustration looks pretty optimistic. 🤔 When I look at it in Stellarium, the cluster around Saturn is pretty close to the Sun. Not sure you can see them. 🤔 Saturn is even closer to the Sun than Mercury – and Mercury is notoriously hard to observe.

But I hope I’m wrong!

January looks pretty interesting, too, btw.

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org /Me throws his keyboard off to the side, grabs his camera just in case and runs upstairs screaming “Yeah! Science B_ !”

@movq@www.uninformativ.de Hmm yeah, you’re right. I should have checked for our location prior to getting too excited.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Yeah, a sore neck is always a win. :-P Here’s nothing really to see, all cloudy. And also a bit cold at -2°C. I don’t feel like standing still all that long outside at the moment. :-D
