      Explanation: The world is waking up to a picturesque planet parade.   
      Just before dawn, the eastern skies over much of planet Earth are   
      decorated by a notable line of familiar planets. In much of Earth's   
      northern hemisphere, this line of planets appears most nearly   
      horizontal, but in much of Earth's southern hemisphere, the line   
      appears more nearly vertical. Pictured over the Sydney Opera House in   
      southern Australia, the planet line was captured nearly vertical about   
      five days ago. From top to bottom, the morning planets are Saturn,   
      Mars, Venus, and Jupiter. As April ends, the angular distance between   
      Venus and Jupiter will gradually pass below a degree as they switch   
      places. Then, as May ends, Jupiter will pass near Mars as those two   
      planets switch places. In June, the parade will briefly expand to   
      include Mercury.
