Five Different Planets Will Align In The Hawaii Night Sky During An Incredibly Rare Display
If you’re looking for a spectacular night display, make sure you see these five planets align in Hawaii. This rare phenomenon is happening during the month of June, peaking towards the end of the month. Make sure to set your alarm clocks so you won’t miss the chance to see this unique occurrence!

During the month of June, you’ll have the chance to see the unique phenomena that hasn’t happened in years. The last time this event happened was in 2004.

The planets will appear to be in a row because of the way they travel on their plane of the solar system. They will be visible to the naked eye, but you can definitely see them better if you have a telescope or binoculars.

You’ll also see a sliver of a crescent moon in the path between Venus and Mars. Even though these planets look like they’re close, there are still millions of miles between them.

Make sure you’re viewing south/southeast; you’ll want to check what time Mercury is out to calculate when the best time is to view. We love the Night Sky Map; it will let you know the best time to head out for the show!

Any time that week will be a great opportunity, but June 24th will be the best. If you can make it out in the early hours, perhaps on the beach or on top of a mountain with no light pollution, you’ll have ideal viewing conditions.

Timing it for when Mercury is rising will be the trickiest part, but luckily Mercury will be out before the sun rises for just over an hour. That should give you enough time to take in the show.

This stunning event won’t happen again for decades. Make sure to wake up early and see the show of a decade!
