What is Planet Parade?

About Planet Parade:

• This is the phenomenon wherein the planets Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn were visible to the naked eye from Earth.
• This planetary meet-up, also known as a conjunction, makes the two planets appear close together or even touch in the Earth's night sky.
• Despite being millions of kilometres apart, the planets seem to occupy the same space in the night sky because of their alignment.
• Just after sunset in the west, a conjunction of Venus and Saturn were 0.4 degrees apart as seen from earth.
