UAE: Stargazers in the UAE are preparing for a rare celestial event: a planetary alignment on the night of January 25. This alignment will feature several of the solar system’s planets lined up in a way that can be seen with the naked eye. The event promises to be an unforgettable spectacle for astronomy enthusiasts and casual observers alike.
The alignment will be visible across the country, with some of the brightest planets, including Jupiter, Saturn, and Venus, appearing close to each other in the night sky. Local astronomy clubs and observatories are excited to share this moment with the public, offering special viewing sessions to help people experience the phenomenon.
This alignment occurs only once every few years, making it a unique opportunity for those in the UAE to witness the planets in such a configuration. While the alignment is visible to the naked eye, those with telescopes will have an enhanced view of the individual planets and their details.
