You can watch a parade of planets in the morning sky — if you get up really early
Early risers take note: Something beautiful has been happening in the east in the wee hours of the morning, and it's about to get even better.
Over the past month, four planets — Saturn, Mars, Venus and Jupiter — have been marching upwards from the eastern horizon.
But two are ready for a super-close match-up. On Saturday and Sunday morning, Venus and Jupiter will appear almost inseparable. They will be separated by less than half the width of a full moon.
If you want to stumble out of
bed and take a look, the best time is before sunrise, around 5 to 5:30 a.m. local time. And you'll need to have a good view of the eastern horizon.
