Jupiter, Venus and Mars these Earth’s three neighboring planets will be seen close together lightening up the heaven after sunset as a celestial spectacle.
Interesting fact is that celestial spectacles that await astro-enthusiasts for a long time are seen for the next three-four nights.
The night sky over Mumbai will play host to see a pleasing sight of these three bright planets that will be lined up.
