Quote:
Venus, Jupiter and Mars can be seen from the Earth's skyline this week in a rare grouping of the three planets.
The planetary conjunction - in which planets appear closer because of their positions in relation to the Sun - has been visible for days and will continue until at least the end of the week.
The planets are best seen before sunrise and are expected to appear closest together on Thursday.
The next time the planets will come together will be in January 2021.
But how do would-be astronomers see the spectacle before it is gone?
How do I see the planets?
The planets can be seen without equipment towards the east. The best time to see them is just before sunrise because at this time they are high in the skyline but it is dark enough to see them. Binoculars and telescopes can be used to see the planets in more detail.
