In this upcoming case, it won’t just be two planets, it will be five planets and the moon.
For the next several weeks, Michiganders will be able to look east and southeast just before sunrise and see the planets all in a row.Waiting until June 24 to June 26 to look for the planets allows you to see Mercury.
Mercury will only be visible just above the horizon for about 15 minutes.
But this year’s Grand Conjunction is even more special, and something we haven’t seen since the 1950s, states Slisher.
This year’s conjunction will have all of the planets lined up as they are in ordered distance from the sun.
I would definitely try viewing the Grand Conjunction Friday early morning or Saturday early morning.
