Six-Planet Alignment on Feb 28: Will India Witness This Rare Sky Event?
•A rare six-planet alignment featuring Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus will occur on February 28.
•From Earth, these planets will appear clustered along the same arc of the sky, not in a perfectly straight line.
•India will be able to witness this celestial event, with the best viewing window shortly after sunset, between 6:15 PM and 8:00 PM IST.
•Locations like Ladakh, parts of Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, and coastal Tamil Nadu offer excellent visibility; bright planets visible even in metro cities.
•While visually spectacular, scientists confirm no significant physical effects on Earth from this alignment due to vast distances.
