Want to see that famous planetary alignment? Set your alarm for Friday before dawn.

Martin Dolan’s picture, taken last week

If you’ve missed the rare sight of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn appearing together in the sky for the first time since 2005, set your alarm for Friday morning.

The moon will be at its darkest this weekend as it wanes, while Mercury will rise at its earliest – about 80 minutes before dawn.

Mercury will be nearest the horizon and the most westerly.
Venus will be in the south east, with Saturn higher up to the right. Further over at due south, you’ll see Mars and way beyond in the south east will be Jupiter.

Dawn is set for 7.02am on Friday.
