Helluva cosmic billiard shot set up?
A ‘planetary parade’ is set to decorate the sky at the end of May and early June.

This will have Saturn, Mars, Mercury and Jupiter lined up and the display will be visible to the naked eye, although Jupiter may be harder to see due to its proximity to the Sun.

Uranus and Neptune will also be lined up, but will most likely only be visible with a telescope.
When to look

In Australia, the parade may be best seen on May 28 about 6.30am in respective time zones.

Today's sunrise. Lucky our priests carried out a human sacrifice yesterday.

Whilst not as impressive as your video, here's the view from my bedroom balcony of this morning's sunrise over the South Pacific Ocean in Dharawal country.

I'm pretty impressed with the water views, that's $200K added to your net worth. I need to walk up the hill and climb a tree for that.

Here's a panoramic image of my view taken around 12 years ago. Sadly, those trees in the lower part of the photo have grown to the extent that I can no longer see that!

I thought I'd point my camera at Jupiter and see if any detail could be seen at full optical and digital zoom. I didn't expect to see the moons!
