Stargazers who haven’t had a chance to check out this month’s planet parade will want to look up soon because there’s something about the January event that is particularly special. But it might not be what you’ve seen on social media.

In case anyone missed the January planetary alignment, two more are expected to be seen in the night sky in February, with one alignment featuring two more celestial bodies.

Early 2025 is a good time for skygazing and spotting up to seven planets in the night sky – if you have a little help.
