I don't know if anyone has read or heard about this amazing event. There are 7 planets that are all aligned in the night sky with at least 4, or 5 visible to the naked eye.
The next time this will occur is in something like 350 billion years, all these planets on the same side of the sun.
We are on Cape Cod right now and away from city lights and it is easy to see Jupiter, Mars, Saturn and Venus. I use an app that identifies what we are looking at as I point the phone to the sky. Jupiter is almost straight up along with Mars. Saturn and Venus are lower more towards the horizon but clearly visible.
Truly something amazing to see.

The perfect day was supposed to have been Saturday.
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

Yes that's right but they are still plainly visable now.
