You might want to keep your eyes on the skies through next month: Six planets will align in January and February.

Tonight and throughout January, stargazers can see a planetary alignment in the night sky or what some are calling a planetary parade.

Have you heard of the “planetary parade” that’s happening in the night skies? For much of January and February, you have the chance to see six planets in our solar system after dark, although two — Uranus and Neptune — will be hard to see without a telescope or high-powered binoculars.

While the planets are technically always "aligned" along the same plane in our sky, seeing so many at once is a special opportunity

Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn are visible to the naked eye this month and for part of February. Uranus and Neptune can be spotted with binoculars and telescopes.
