Planetary Parade

**Planetary alignment the morning of April 25, 2022**.

This morning on our walk we saw the above spectacle, a rare alignment of the planets along with the Moon. Next month, Mercury will join the parade as well. Additionally, Neptune, not visible to the eye, lies between Venus and Jupiter. By the weekend Jupiter and Venus will be very close together, and the alignment will remain spectacular for the next couple of weeks, though the Moon will be gone in a couple of days.
