You can watch the three worlds hugging each other on Monday and Tuesday nights (April 4-5) if you wake up early in the morning.
Cloudy Venus, Mars and Saturn sound to reunite in the eastern sky before dawn after forming a celestial triangle at the end of March.
NASA estimates that Mars and Saturn are only a few fingers apart on Friday (April 1), but very close to Monday.
“On the 4th, Saturn and Mars are separated by a little more than the width of the full moon. Then Saturn moves, increasing its separation from Mars each day,” he said. The business speaks in a language. You can catch the show at about 5:50 am EDT in New York City, which is about 45 minutes before dawn.

You can see the small movement of the earth between Monday and Tuesday. On Tuesday, Saturn and Mars will be getting closer to each other, only about halfway apart. (Mars will be red, below Saturn will be white and yellow.)
Venus, according to NASA, is located south of Saturn and Mars. “Venus will rise later over the southeast at 4:54 am EDT, and at about 10 degrees in the sky at the beginning of the morning at about one o’clock at 5:48 am , “the department said.
In addition to the world map, there are many other things to see in the night sky. On Monday, the Pleiades constellation was only five degrees north of the moon.
Although the star cluster can be seen with the naked eye, it is related to the amount of light pollution that interferes with vision. “You probably need binoculars to really appreciate this constellation,” NASA said.
Then on Tuesday, watch for the bright star Aldebaran, which is about seven degrees south -south of the moon. The star is the bull face of Taurus, the bull group. (Names may vary depending on the culture you follow; here, we’re talking about registrations by the International Astronomical Union.)
The alignment of the hotel and the moon is common because all of these planets orbit the nearly identical plane of the solar system, called the ecliptic. Even though you don’t know exactly how the planets look, the three stars will always shine in the days to come and give you a better view.
