      Explanation: Yes, but have you ever seen all of the planets at once? A   
      rare roll-call of planets has been occurring in the morning sky for   
      much of June. The featured fisheye all-sky image, taken a few mornings   
      ago near the town of San Pedro de Atacama in Chile, caught not only the   
      entire planet parade, but the Moon between Mars and Venus. In order,   
      left to right along the ecliptic plane, members of this Solar System   
      family portrait are Earth, Saturn, Neptune, Jupiter, Mars, Uranus,   
      Venus, Mercury, and Earth. To emphasize their locations, Neptune and   
      Uranus have been artificially enhanced. The volcano just below Mercury   
      is Licancabur. In July, Mercury will move into the Sun's glare but   
      reappear a few days later on the evening side. Then, in August, Saturn   
      will drift past the direction opposite the Sun and so become visible at   
      dusk instead of dawn. The next time that all eight planets will be   
      simultaneously visible in a morning sky will be in 2122.
