An unusual celestial formation has left sky-gazers in the city mesmerized. Beginning August, three planets have been spotted in close proximity to each other, forming a small triangle in the western sky. MP Birla Planetarium director (research & academics) Debiprosad Duari said the phenomenon would be visible for a fortnight.

Venus, Mars and Saturn, the three brightest planets visible from earth, are recognizable to anyone with an elementary knowledge of the sky. The clustering, smaller than a closed fist extended in front of the eyes, can be seen shortly after sunset, around 6.15 pm, from a place with a clear and unobstructed view of the western horizon.
In this planetary line-up, one is sure to notice Venus, which is at present the brightest of all objects in the night sky. Venus will be around 30? above the western horizon. Within a 10? circle, a very short distance of Venus, will be the other two planets Mars and Saturn visible to the naked eye.
Although the three planets look quite close together, in reality Venus is 11.38 crore km away from Earth, Mars is 30.6 crore km away and Saturn is much further away at a distance of 153 crore km.
Another planet, Mercury, is visible on the western horizon around this time. Though not as bright as the other three and quite close to the horizon, it can be observed properly through a binocular. "Sky enthusiasts are sure to be delighted by this celestial "summit meeting" which does not happen often. On August 12, a crescent moon will join the planetary show and just after sunset, it will be a wonderful sight. One should also note that Saturn and Mars are five magnitudes fainter than Venus and thus only about 1% as bright. They're side by side in the sky, separated by about three or four fingers held together at arm's length. They'll spend the coming week moving to the right with respect to Venus, creating a planetary triangle that changes shape from day to day," Duari explained.
A wide variety of different conjunctions and configurations involving the planets typically occur during the course of any given year. It is, however, unusual for three or more bright planets to appear within a same small area. All of these planets, as well as the moon, closely follow an imaginary line in the sky called the ecliptic. The ecliptic is also the apparent path that the Sun appears to take through the sky as a result of the Earth's revolution around it. Hence, planets and the moon get aligned in an arc across the sky and is called a conjunction.
