Worlds will align for a "planetary parade" in January, with four bright and easily visible to the naked eye. But an even better view arrives in February and March. Here's what you need to know.

Stargazers get ready as this January into February is the chance to catch one of the best planetary displays for years. This is known as planetary alignment - or a planet parade. You'll be able to spot some celestial bodies with just your eyes while others can be seen through a telescope.

Sky gazers will get a peek at what has been called a "parade of planets," where this time around, up to seven planets may appear to line up.

To have four bright planets visible in the winter night sky is a cool skywatching event to share with friends and family.
