PLANETS ALIGN: Step outside tonight at sunset and look west toward the glow of the setting sun. As soon as the sky gets dark, you'll see three planets--Venus, Mercury and Saturn--gathered close together not far above the western horizon It's a beautiful alignment. You have three chances to see them: June 25th, June 26th and June 27th. A clear view of the western horizon is key.

NOCTILUCENT CLOUDS: While you're out looking at the planets, be alert also for noctilucent clouds. They've been sighted over Europe and/or Canada almost every day for the past two weeks. Noctilucent clouds typically appear after sunset, glowing electric blue and crisscrossed by many fine ripples and waves. Visit spaceweather.com to view sample photos and to read about the mystery of this beautiful phenomenon.
