    • Mercury. Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun in our Solar System. Because it is so close to the Sun, it is only observable in the early morning, just before sunrise, or at dusk.
    • Venus. After the Moon, Venus is the brightest natural object in the night sky. It is both the Earth’s closest neighbor in our Solar System and the planet most similar to Earth in size, gravity, and composition.
    • Mars. Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun in our Solar System. While it’s not our nearest neighbor (Venus takes that honor), or the brightest planet in the night sky (also Venus), it is perhaps the planet that most inspires our imagination.
    • Jupiter. Jupiter is usually the third brightest object in the night sky, after the Moon and Venus (only Mars, our next-door neighbor, is occasionally brighter), and summer is an especially good time to view this bright behemoth.
    • Mercury. Top telescope pick! Looking for a telescope for the next night sky event? We recommend the Celestron Astro Fi 102 as the top pick in our best beginner's telescope guide.
    • Venus. Venus is always brilliant and shining with a steady, silvery light. Evenings in the western sky at dusk from Jan. 1 to Aug. 4. Mornings in the eastern sky at dawn from Aug.
    • Mars. Shining like a "star" with a yellow-orange hue, Mars can vary considerably in brightness. This will be an "off" year for the Red Planet, coming off of a dazzling Mars opposition on Dec.
    • Jupiter. Quite brilliant with a silver-white luster, Jupiter starts the year in the constellation Pisces, the Fishes, crosses over into the non-zodiacal constellation Cetus, the Whale on Feb.
