Six planets line up in the pre-dawn sky on Wednesday, Aug. 27 — but not for long. Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn will shine brilliantly, joined by fainter Mercury rising shortly before the sun.

With Mercury slipping into the sun’s glare, this rare six-planet spectacle will soon give way to a five-planet show.
