Teaching your students about the planetary alignment? The Planet Parade Data Story is an easy tool for finding the planets in the sky from any location! A short video with an overhead view of the solar system shows WHY all the planets are visible together https://t.co/zvi0eMMc2I

The planets align!

But, sorry, they're not in a straight line!

Check out the story and video to learn why!
