Six of our cosmic neighbors are expected to line up across the night sky tonight, in what has been dubbed a "planetary parade". Throughout much of January and February, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune will be visible splayed out in a long arc across the heavens, with Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn being visible to the naked eye.

Just by looking up, you’ll be able to get a glimpse of several planets shining brightly in the night sky. The six planets – Venus, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Uranus and Neptune – will all be in a straight line.

There is currently a celestial event otherwise known as a planetary parade. During the course of a night you can see up to six planets such as Mars, Neptune and Venus with the naked eye. Josh managed to capture the parade of planets from a spot high on the Mendips.
