Hey y’all! The universe is about to put on a hella show for everyone…especially parts of Europe. Tomorrow, August 12, 2026 will be a triple hitter in the skies!
There will be a rare six-planet alignment called a "planet parade," with Mercury, Jupiter, Mars, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune visible in the pre-dawn sky. The best viewing time is approximately 30–60 minutes before sunrise. You’ll need binoculars or a telescope for the last two.
But that’s not all! Come for the parade, but stay for the eclipse and settle in for the fireworks of the #Perseid meteor shower peak. It’s an all day celestial party!
Oh, and don’t forget, gravity is going to be turned off at 14:33 UTC for seven seconds, so hold on to something. (Gravity is not being turned off, it’s a very silly internet conspiracy. That’s not how physics works. That’s not how any of this works.)

A very pretty conjunction between the Moon & Venus in clear cold skies this evening 🙂
There was some excellent earthshine to be seen, sunlight reflected off the Atlantic lighting up the otherwise dark part of the Moon 🌒
And it was easy to see that Venus was a crescent, with sunlight striking it in pretty much the same as it was hitting the Moon 🌙

Light pollution and stormy skies.
Still seems dreamy with two bright spots in the #planetParade

Look up! A stunning parade of planets—Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars—is visible in the early evening sky all month, according to NASA. Whether you’re a stargazer or not, don’t miss this rare opportunity to connect with the cosmos.
“These multi-planet viewing opportunities aren’t rare, but they don’t happen every year, so check out,” NASA says.

I didn't have my very wide lens with me last night, so the planetary line-up is a set of three separate photos at different focal lengths.
Saturn and Venus, Jupiter with the Pleiades and Hyades, and Mars with Castor and Pollux in Gemini.
All single 30 seconds snaps with a :sigma_200_lens: and :nikon_d750:
