As I write this on August 25, 2012, Mars and Saturn are clearly visible just above the western horizon at sunset. Venus is the "Morning Star", and is the brightest thing in the sky in the eastern sky just before dawn. Jupiter rises about 1AM, and is visible until dawn.

Mercury is tougher; it's currently too close to the Sun to be visible and is headed to a "superior conjunction" when Mercury will be on the other side of the Sun from us in mid-September. It will remain too close to the Sun to be visible until the end of October. By Halloween, you should have a chance to see Mercury low in the western sky just after sunset.

When will the five most visible planets be observable in the evening sky during the next 12 months in the year 2013?

This question was posted on July 18, 2013. The Earth and all the other planets each orbit the Sun in their own orbits, and our view from Earth will change day to day as the other planets race ahead or lag behind in their orbits. Venus, the brightest planet, is visible low on the western horizon at sunset as the "Evening Star". It will remain visible in the western sky at sunset until November, when it will get too close to the Sun to view. Saturn is high in the sky at sunset, and sets around midnight. Mars, Jupiter and Mercury all rise just before the Sun does, and may be visible low in the Eastern sky just before dawn. The Earth will be overtaking planets Mars and Jupiter, so they will be rising earlier and earlier each morning, and as the Earth passes them on the inside track of their orbits, they will be easily visible high in the evening sky by November.


What planets are visible in November 2008?

Venus and Jupiter will be the only planets visible in the evening sky in November. During November the gap between the two planets will diminish until they are little over 2 degrees apart at the end of the month. Saturn will move a little higher into the morning sky, rising 3 hours before the Sun by November 30. Venus and Jupiter will be the only planets visible in the evening sky in November. During November the gap between the two planets will diminish until they are little over 2 degrees apart at the end of the month. Saturn will move a little higher into the morning sky, rising 3 hours before the Sun by November 30.
