NASA Updates on Triple planet alignment is really fascinating and rare sight. Dr. Tony Philips brings in the latest updates about this fantastic and mind boggling information for all of us.
The Three planets #1 Venus, #2 Jupiter and #3 Mercury have been sighted by the upcoming new scientists. It is said that similar incident occurred in May 2011 and it will not reappear until October 2015.
This triangle is visible clearly in day light pollution, however it was sited in the evening around 8:45 pm. When the sky was beautifully shades of orange, red and blue.
It will take at least 30-60 minutes to watch the complete view. During the sunset, its time for these planets to come to lime light, it is clearly visible with bare eyes and with normal binocular the slow drift and path alignments looks magnificent. Well if you have a professional binocular then you are blessed !
Before this alignment takes place there are other things going on. You do not have to wait till the occurrence of this moment. Instead few weeks before itself the scientists observed the alignment of Moon, Venus and Jupiter in diagonal line.
The three planets then formed a triangular shape where each planet aligned itself at three corners of the triangle.
The view is spectacular as these planets drift away slowly, the angular shift could be clearly noticed. The Pairing, diagonal, straight and the triangular line alignment looks as if its magical mystical twilight.
